Well I picked up a new (to me) drifter yesterday. Its an 07 Fish Craft 16x54. I made my first float in it today just down the chehalis to get a feel for it and so far so good

That's a nice looking machine. Where are they made? Never heard of Fish Craft, but it looks like a dandy.

They are built down in sisters oregon. If I have it right they went out of business for a couple years but are back at it again now. The guy who started fish craft was a welder for willie for like twenty years prior. I called and talked to them before buying this boat used and they seem like good guys down there. Now I just gotta get some fish in the box!

Looks like a boat I saw for sale a couple weeks ago in Cathlamet if I remember correctly. Newer Fishcraft in excellent condition @ a damn good price, wished I had a little extra cash.

Ya that's prolly the one you saw I bought it off a guy down there and managed to beat a little more off the price too.

Congrats on the boat! nothing beats a day in a driftboat! spent all day in mine today!!

Nice looking boat! Time to get some blood in it and break it in! Looks almost identical to my old Fish-Rite on the inside. Well layed out boat and fished great and rowed like a dream. Look forward to seeing your first picture holding up a giant steelie next to it.

GreyWolf · « **Reply #24 on:** February 18, 2011, 08:59:32 AM »

That is a thing of pure beauty!

Just looking at it makes me feel calm as a Hindu cow, congratulations!
