PROFESSIONALLY MAINTAINED YEAR ROUND!! NEVER CHARTERED! This Little Hoquiam sport fisher was built for rugged Alaskan waters and designed by the current owner with the serious angler in mind. The Herring Impaired delivers exceptional performance, comfort, and functionality. With her proven fiberglass hull, extended range capabilities, and thoughtful layout, she's equally ready for offshore fishing or extended cruising.
Built for the current owner by Little Hoquiam Shipyard-a name synonymous with durable commercial-grade vessels- this sport fisher features a solid fiberglass hull, sharp entry, and ample flare for a dry, stable ride. With a wide beam and functional deck layout, it's the perfect balance of workhorse and comfort.
The current owner returned her to Little Hoquiam in 2024 for a extensive re-fit. The owner had a naval architect modify and replace the motor bracket to handle the new Yamaha 5.6 liter V-8's. The other work included adding the new Yamaha's, install new controls at the main helm and aft station, install the new Model 4 Seakeeper, rebuild the bait station to make room for a larger cutting board and add more storage, and have the 8 man raft recertified.
Other 2024 work included:
-Replaced all AGM batteries & balanced the vessel weight
-Replaced all aluminum trim & kick plates with stainless
-Added additional venting to both fuel tanks to handle larger volume filling
-Removed 2nd row of rocket launchers and added side 5 pole launchers to port & starboard
-Installed uhmwp strips to roof to protect abuse from shrimp & crab pots
-New bottom paint and correct all scratches on gel coat
