Beryllium 18

Hull design from the legendary Chris Morejohn, produced to perfection by the Backside team. This skiff eats chop while keeping you dry, and still poles like a dream! 

About the Beryllium

The Beryllium 18 surpasses expectations with its spacious storage, easy access to rigging, and resilience. Hand built with vinyl ester resin, vacuum infused, and fully cored; weight and durability aren’t compromised when you need to be where you want to be. We try to package our skiffs with everything you need to get on the water so you can spend less time searching for the little things and more time hunting the catch of a lifetime.
