Grew up in my dads river rafting company, spending day after day harassing guides and getting on the river.I have been a guide for 15 years all over the west and have settled in to the Idaho scene. I live and work on the clearwater and it's tributaries, mostly the Lochsa and upper Selway. I have been obsessed with wooden boats since my first trip in a dory in the early 90s. Always begging and borrowing other peoples boat, I decided to finally build my own. I have been in a study and plan stage since I bought plans from Roger a number of years ago, but never took the first step. I started looking for a boat to buy , so I could get a feel for a good boat before building one.I just recently found this gem and now officially have my first wooden boat!
My husband was the builder of the boat you now own, and I am so very happy to see you are the proud owner! This was a most devastating experience, and after all his long hard work on this beauty I was surprised and saddened to hear him say he did not want any part of it any more. So, I am so happy for you and especially so happy to see your progression, and for keeping it alive....thank you!
