Just realized that I haven’t shared the newest member to my fishing family. Originally had a 10 foot Rebel flat bottom, a 1448 Lowe and the 20ft Thunderjet with the 350jet.
Although it was nice to have the options i researched the perfect all round boat for my needs. Ended up the power drifter was what I was looking for.
Just before all this Corona virus stuff happened i was given a reference to a company called Driftwood Boats in Oregon.
I cant say enough about the boat and the great customer service from the owner Adrian.
The end product was a 16ft power drifter powder coated in blue on the outside and grey on the inside.
Checkerplate floor with removable and movable box seats. casting braces on bow and stern, anchor systems on front and back and a 60/40 mercury jet with a heated tiller handle. For smaller restricted lakes i picked up an extra long leg Tohatsu 6 hp.
This boat has proven itself on the bigger Fraser as well as stillwater lakes. Looking forward to taking it onto skinny waters.
This is going to be my lifetime fishing weapon.
