MASH is a small powerboat with a big mission: She’s meant to carry a family of five—and perhaps six—on daytime adventures and occasional overnights on Lake Pend Oreille in northern Idaho.
Particulars:
- LOA: 24′4″

- Beam: 8′4½″

The cozy cabin can have as many as four berths: two conventional ones, and two removable pipe berths above them. The cockpit settees also convert to berths.
A well-fitted canvas enclosure turns the cockpit and helm area into an auxiliary cabin. The galley is also in this space.
