Rebuilding An Old Wooden Fly Fishing Drift Boat | BLC Project: Wooden Drift Boat

Last week we took our New-2-U drift boat on an inaugural float to see how bad it really was.
The answer? Pretty bad. A lot of work was needed if we wanted to keep using this thing.
We sanded, fiberglassed, painted, and with the help of a lot of marine epoxy we had a boat in working order!
Stay tuned next week for Episode 3 where we take the boat to float a famous western trout river to put the build to the test!
