The 2027 Spyder FX17 Flicker is a 17-foot technical poling skiff built for shallow-water angling. Finished in Graphite Gray with gray interior, it combines lightweight construction with a design engineered to float skinny and pole quietly. The hull is all-composite fiberglass with an advanced stringer system, weighing roughly 890 pounds and drawing just 7 inches of water. It seats three and carries 14 gallons of fuel.
Power comes from a Suzuki 60 four-stroke engine paired with a jack plate and trim tabs for precise shallow-water control. The boat is equipped with a 7-inch GPS display, hydro tilt steering, and a poling platform. Navigation features include LED lights throughout, a removable bow light, and underwater lights. A waterproof stereo and trumpet horn with stainless grill complete the helm.
The boat is rigged for fishing with six rod holders, under-gunwale rod holders, recessed push pole holders, and a trolling motor harness and plug. Two aerated live wells—one center rear and one at the console—keep bait fresh, along with a fuel-water separator and automated bilge. The insulated front-seat well, cushioned front seat with removable backrest, and cup holders add comfort for day trips.
The deck features yacht-finished diamond non-skid surface with stainless steel rub rail, flush-mount cleats, and an anchor locker. Interior amenities include seven LED-illuminated rocker switches, circuit breakers, a 12-volt power port, and two LED interior lights. The boat carries a 10-year limited hull warranty.
