Been a river runner for 25 years, built my first wooden boat in 2001 off some scribbled plans Andy Hutchinson was gracious enough to send me. Currently building two more wooden drift boats with partial decks, love to float the North Platte, Upper Colorado, and the Grand at least once per year, just about anything in Idaho, Yampa and Green.
Boats I own:
1 Briggs Dory, 2 McKenzie Double Enders with Transom &decks
Upset-? I always run left there..or try to, hee, hee. (at least get to the slot, just left of the hole at bottom). It's: "hey, diddle diddle, right down the middle", w/ current flows, though....(25k). Hole's washed-out...
Hey Andy: you may be back on the river, but thought I'd check in. We had a great time, kept the dory upright, wildest ride through Lava of course but sure thanks for the heads up on the others. Was looking at photos of the GC Exp. dories and am wondering if you can give me some idea of the hatch design you're using now. They look much better than my current old school briggs design.
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mrsstellaabudheir@gmail.com ) for the full details.
