    Thanks to Dave McCoy of Emerald Water Anglers. He graduated me to much of W. WA's waters after taking his river safety course. I stole the image from the Patagonia ambassador blog.

    Just out of curiosity - why do you put the bottom in on moving water?

    Because Dave wanted me to throw it on. He'd never seen the bottom and wanted to see how it worked out.

    I've read too many of these and it played a large part in my recent decision to get a Watermaster. Good luck!

    James, this does not surprise me at all since I know someone that bought a boat from NFO and had the same results regarding their care and customer service when he sent it back in for a repair. He finally got his boat back and paid for the repair after a very long time of waiting without any earlier replies to his phone calls and emails. During the long wait he bought a Watermaster and throughly enjoyed using it. The NFO boat is now owned by someone else and he is glad he got rid of it.

    Ok here is another update. I went to the Sportsmans show in Puyallup on Saturday. I spoke to Mr Dave Scadden face to face about the debacle that is my order. Did not leave with oars in hand but was told that I would receive then within a week and a half. So again I am waiting for another, this will be shipment number four, box from the NFO Dave Scadden company. I did how ever explain that if I do not receive them I would see him again at the Portland show.. I WILL GET MY ENTIRE ORDER!!!!
