2026 Dragonfly Boatworks 17 Classic

The 2026 Dragonfly Boatworks 17 Classic is a lightweight fiberglass flats boat powered by a Yamaha 90 hp gasoline engine. Designed for shallow-water navigation, it combines responsive handling with capability in rougher conditions. The hull remains dry and performs like a nimble platform whether in skinny water or open ocean.

The boat is equipped with a Garmin 943xsv GPS, plotter, and sounder, along with a 24-volt Minn Kota trolling motor and Power Pole anchoring system for precise positioning. Navigation is handled through hydraulic steering with Palm Beach–style controls and recessed hand controls at the helm.

Comfort and functionality are addressed throughout: the helm features a cushioned seat and the console includes an integrated cooler. A removable backrest with deck mounts, under-gunnel and locker LED lighting, USB outlets, and stainless steel cleats support daily operation. The boat includes a plumbed livewell with aerator, Lenco trim tabs for performance tuning, a 1100 Rule bilge pump, and push pole holders for poling access.

Details include a custom wood grain dash and transom, GemLux hatch locks and hinges, and a three-bank battery charger with accompanying battery system for extended use.
