Small boat, big personality..
With a quick walk around today I was impressed with the over all clever design of the boat, packing so much into less than 16 feet!
The modular designs remind me of some of the Shamrocks we have had. There are two lift out floor panels exposing large fish boxes/storage areas, three more removable panels on the inside transom giving easy access to the fuel tank and batteries. The passenger and jump seat are on a large modular box with storage as well.
Tired of unreliable fuel gauges? The lift out panel in front of the translucent gas tank shows exactly how much gas you have in a really cool, very reliable and very unsophisticated manner!
When removing the cabin cushions, which form a completely flat and impressive sleeping area for her size, we discovered a large freshwater storage tank! There is a pump that sends water back to a small storage bin/sink next to the motor. This is ideal for a personal rinse down or to clean the day's catch. It appears to be unused.
This is a really cool, really well made, unsinkable, mini overnighter.
Below is our earlier write up on Arima, a good read, if I do say so myself..

Very Cool 1998 ARIMA EXPLORER 1511
That's right, a cuddy cabin/overnighter/fishing/family boat thats less than 16 feet!
There is no doubt, I have an odd affection for small, kinda dorky boats - and Arima just fills in all those blanks for me.
Arima is a small boat builder (both the boats and the company) in Washington state.
They have a reputation for building high quality, hand built, foam filled, small boats that like Boston Whaler are unsinkable.
Ive admired the brand from afar for years, and this will be the first that weve actually had here at YCM.
These small, high bow, unusual boats are designed to comfortably tolerate the rough waters of the Great Northwest, and to do so efficiently.
All Arima boats are designed to run on plane with low horsepower motors, and to be towed by small automobiles.
The founder of the company (last name Arima) was known to tow one behind his 70s VW Bug!
This one is powered by a simple Yamaha 90 hp two stroke outboard - good on gas, very reliable.
If you visit Arimas website, dont expect much. Its primitive at best and has the feel of a really small, old school company dragged in to the digital age by someones teenaged kid. It may in fact be worst than ours.
Anyway, they dont pump out a whole lot of boats, and most never leave the North West. It is a rare treat to have one here in Virginia.
