I don't think there really is a bad brand of DB, but I do love my buddy's Clacka with the tunnel hull, except I almost fell out of it this summer.  :chuckle:

pick your poison with driftboats...clack makes a great flyfishing boat...alumaweld makes a great boat for pulling plugs and general use. i wouldn't run a fiberglass boat anywhere you run the risk of hitting rocks hard...fiberglass will break...aluminum will bend...aluminum's a lot noisier than glass, but a lot lighter....

i have a lavro...love it, but would much rather have a different boat...with more storage and more options. mine's pert near a bare boat with seats...no frills, but it works and we've done 2 day trips out of it on the yak.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The clack will slide right over rocks with its flexible bottom where as an aluminum boat would just get stuck. My buddy can fish a certain river when it is too low for an aluminum boat cause his boat just bounces/slides over the rocks. Obviously they both have their pros and cons, but I'm pretty sold on the Clack after fishing out of it a few times this summer.

I have a friend with a very nice glass drift boat that has been thinking about selling it, I can check if he was serious if you like.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
