[QUOTE="jtf, post: 463411, member: 22611"] LDUBS has it imo. The western boats are special, I had two Kofflers and have a Hyde. Some makers call them jet/prop drifters, those have some rake for rowing. Others are slight vee or flat motor boats. I fish rocky rivers mostly and use a slight vee welded Weldbilt jon with jet. I am considering trading it for an Alumacraft prop tunnel, going from 1648 to 1860. If you get a sled/flat bottom from out west, get the UHMW bottom for your rivers. It's mechanically fastened. See one of my post with pictures of a 20+ year old Hyde with it, can't be beat for rocky waters, but you can still knock of the bottom end of a motor regardless. Truck/trailer delivery from out west is about $1200. Hyde has a shop in MI. [/QUOTE]
