Long shot request for help. I bought a drift boat, sight unseen. It’s currently in Pocatello, ID. I live in Layton, just north of SLC. Anybody headed this way from Idaho, in the coming days/weeks, that would be willing to drag it down for gas/beer $? Would need 2” ball. My buddy picked it up in Idaho falls and said trailer and tires are solid.

I will coming that way during the Christmas week if you still need it drug down then. Congrats on the boat!
Thanks Teleee. Super stoked. I used a raft over the summer, but after fishing out of a hard boat below fontenelle, I’ve been daydreaming of a drifter. This dry and warm weather has me thinking I should just grab it this weekend and take the maiden voyage up north.

You absolutely should! This is the best time of the year to get in my oh so humble opinion. As the owner of a raft and a drifty, the drift boat is hands down the better fishing vessel if you have enough water to float it!
Enjoy!
If you do keep an eye out for two dirtbags and a big ass dog in a rotomolded Hog Island. We'll be there.Quote:

I guess the previous owner was a guide with a bad case of butt rash. You don't see a lot of rope seats out there; that's mostly for swamp ass guides who have to row 6 or 7 days a week for three straight months.
