Z's Drifter Pram

Hey guys,

I have been slowly working on this boat and thought I would share a few pics of the progress. Thanks for the guidance thus far Dave! A few details of the build so far:

• CVG Doug Fir Framing

• Meranti Sides

• Fiberglass bottom (done the same way as my previous boat with a rounded bottom edge wrapped in glass then chine cap applied to restore hard chine edge - let the debates begin lol)

I think this boat will be painted... not sure yet.

Here are a few random pics I have taken along the way. More to come once the boat gets turned over and the interior work gets going.

Let me know what you think.

I thought for sure that was you I ran into that day. Had a galvanized trailer. Ya, last year we planned it but it was graduation time and a bunch of guys couldnt make it. Dorf and myself are trying to get it together this year. Maybe a little earlier in may this year, stayed at Ed Henning campground in Newago. We`ll do the same this year too.

This pram looks like the perfect light boat to go about anywhere. Thats alot of motor, I have a 8hp on a alum 12 ft lake jon and it flies. Looking for a 3-4 hp long shaft for my boat if you happen to know of one, thanks, Mike

Thanks jason, my friend has a towee and the full length side storage is awesome.  I knew once I saw the z's drifter pram I had to adapt them to my boat.
