Bet you’ve never seen one of these before!

Noted for their innovative driftboat designs, Willie Boats just introduced something radically new and different….the Takelma drift-raft. I just saw this thing last night at the International Sportsmen’s Exposition. Part driftboat, part raft, this thing is pretty cool. Basically, the boys at Willie HQ in Central Point, OR have dropped a beautifully-welded driftboat interior into a raft. The result is all the creature comforts of a drifter, combined with the rock-bouncing properties of a raft. Pretty slick!
