New to me boat (revised with larger photos)

I've been lurking a while in anticipation of getting a boat. I have a friend I met through a Reel Recovery retreat who needed to let his drift boat go. I pick it up on the 21st of January. I'm sure I will have lots of questions once I have it. Here are a few photos. -Dave

Yes, they are on my buddy's Web Shots account and I can't link the photos any larger. Once I have her I'll post some of my own photos. -Dave

Dave:  Nice looking Tracy O'Brien- atleast it looks just like the one I built in 2001.   The christening  was at Mallard's Rest on the Yellowstone just upstream from Jason's shop.  He tuned up our oarlocks, supplied 9 ft oars and one of his solid steel anchors.  At the time he did not have plans- but suggested the O'Brien was a good design.  The boat now lives in Lyle, WA- a long way from Maine.  I modified the design a little- put water tight compartments in the bow and stern.

Good Luck
