Ultimate Hell’s Bay Skiff package up for grabs, benefiting the fight for clean water
To support its mission to restore and protect Florida’s waters, Captains For Clean Water is raffling off a one-of-a-kind boat custom crafted by Hell’s Bay Boatworks in Titusville, Florida, along with a literal boatload of gear from partner brands Orvis, YETI and Costa Del Mar.
Conservation is at the heart of everything CFCW does. Hell’s Bay Boatworks has committed from to fight alongside CFCW in the pursuit of the restoration of the Everglades. By donating the Professional as this year’s raffle skiff, both are investing in the protection of Florida’s waters now and for future generations.
This year’s skiff is a Hell’s Bay Professional 17.8, a shallow water technical poling skiff specifically designed for the pursuit of fish in the most challenging shallow water conditions. Carefully engineered for poling the flats with stealth, this skiff is outfitted with a Mercury 60R Motor, T-H Marine Atlas hydraulic Jack Plate Micro Jacker, custom SeaDek floor kit, Ram-Lin aluminum trailer, Simrad NSS9 evo3S multifunction display, a Power Pole 6ft. Pro Series and a Stiffy Guide Series- Graphite 22-foot Push Pole.
Sporting a multi-tone grey color combination and custom cork SeaDek floor kit, this boat’s look and feel was inspired by the Orvis Helios line of fly rods-of which there are four included with the package.
In addition to this fully rigged shallow water skiff, the winner will also receive a boatload of gear from Orvis, YETI and Costa Del Mar, including four Orvis fly rod outfits, Orvis men’s and women’s Sun Hoodies, a $1,000 Costa Del Mar gift card and from Yeti, a hard cooler, Trailhead camp chair, carryall tote bag, and Yonder water bottles and travel mugs.

Chris Wittman, co-founder of Captains For Clean Water. “They have invested their name and resources into securing clean water protections in Florida and championing Everglades Restoration.
