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.

Have a nice day

Thanks God bless.

Stella.

Hope to fined a motor in good condition or have it rebuilt, would be nice to keep a vintage look with the wood boat and I won't be using it every weekend (I wish). Thanks again for the info and great looking boat love the paint!

I'm building a 16' Don Hill drift boat (almost at finishing) and I live in Chicago so will be fishing mostly in Wisc./Mich. and would like to drift down and motor back up the river. Any info would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Eric

Thanks,
Al

At 4:17am on April 20, 2009, Brad said…: 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.

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
