    Hi Jerry,
    Send me your private e-mail and I will be happy to reply with the information you are asking about.
    My personal e-mail is (dliden@centurytel.net) and my phone is 253-884-4910.
    Be prepared for a lengthy process as the wood has to be completely dry before installing repair plugs and fiberglass.
    Regards
    Dennis Liden

    ? What show?

  • Richard Korte

    I had the Out West boat at that show in 2008 after meeting and talking with Roger Fletcher at a fly fishing show in Seattle.  Every other boat that year was a vintage drift boat or a new, traditional McKenzie style boat, and I really felt out of place. I think they were looking for traditional examples, so I haven't been back. We have taken it to Depoe Bay one year and to the Wooden Boat Show at Port Townsend twice. I appreciate your kind comments!  Rich
