You know what? This whole process of "getting a drift boat" is worthy of a book in its own right.
But the book would be a little useless.
I have read almost every forum post on here, i-fish, etc, etc on "which material", then "which style", then... well you know what i mean.
Then i went out and looked at a few.... which led me straight back to "which style" etc, as the "material" question was soon answered.
Wood won - I almost got a tingle down my arm every time i fondled a wood boat. Got a different tingle when i touched an aluminum one... but when my palm stuck to the metal, i believe it was COLD.
But... I have now realized, from re-reading a lot of the forum posts now, that a lot of what i have just learned about selecting etc applies just to me!!
Different problems are now appearing..
Do i restore it?
What do i use for immediate repairs?
Should i scrape and re-do the bottom?
well again, you know what i am talking about.
Will get back with more pics later.. perhaps in a "yeah, i finally got Wood" thread.
