The Gradient Model

The Gradient (formerly The Hybrid) is the ultimate compromise for the angler who desires the traditional elegance and craftsmanship of the Legacy model but demands a more open, functional bow space. Built upon the foundation of the Legacy model, it features the same hand-selected White Ash wood structural components throughout most of the boat (gunnels, bow stem, transom, and ribs), ensuring a classic look and feel. The key innovation is the use of structural aluminum bracing in the bow, replacing the forward wooden rib to create a walkaround space for the front angler.
