    Welcome! I'm glad you jumped on. We get a little North West centric so it will be great to have a Southern perspective.

    Hey Ga., I'm in NC building a S&G drifter but I can't get away from the beauty of those wooden boats. I'm already thinking of a Tatman. I hope you don't mind a few questions.
    Do you have the 16 footer with the 48" inch bottom?
    What hp motor do you have? Long Shaft?
    How does it go under power?
    Did you modify the transom for the motor?
    NIce looking boat. I know you enjoy it. jb

    Georgia Drifter, what waters are you drifting down there? I grew up in the greater Atlanta area, and go back a couple of times a year. I have family that lives on the Chattahoochee, but on the southern end below Atlanta, so I am not sure I want to fish the water coming out of the city.

    I know Newnan. My grandparents place is in the woods near Fairburn. How long does it take you to get to trout water below Lanier?

    Do you mind if I ask how many inches you engine shaft is? I have a 16' tatman as well and am looking an engine for my boat.
    Thanks,
    Al

    Thanks for the info! How far past the transome does the prop sit?
