Welcome to Willie boats!

[chuck 'n' duck]

I absolutely love my Willie driftboat. They are without a doubt the best boats on the water. Great to see them supporting ifish!

Looking for a used Willie boat. I sold my open sled last year and I just cant stand fishing out of my drift boat with all the sleds ripppping by me anymore. I've had three Willie Boats, 2 17'9 predators and my Drift boat. Looking for a 17' or 19' with a Sportjet (I've had the tiller and with kids it just makes more sense).
I bought my last boat on a guide program with South River Marine (had to get a real job) so I'm looking for a good price. If you know of anything for sale (hint, hint) please send me an e-mail....kinebra@home.com

Glad to see Willie on board. I am waiting right now for my 17' driftboat to arrive. Should be another week or so. Been great dealing with South River also. Thanks Willie

It is all I have ever rowed, and I love my Willie boat! Glad to have them on ifish. RW

Hey Kinebra...
Looks like Ol' Willie's looking for you!Used Willies from Willie (http://www.willieboats.com/usedboats/index.htm)
I rowed a lot of different drift boats before I had my Willie built 12 years ago. I still think it's the best thing on the water.

I rowed an Alumaweld Alumadrifter for the first 11 years of my driftboating career. 1 and 1/2 years ago I finally sold it and bought a 16'x 54" Willie. The only thing I am trying to figure out is why I didn't do it alot sooner. As far as driftboats go, I am a Willie Man forever.

Pete: thanks but this is the current status or "used boats"

Kinebra ... I am aware of the current lack of boats at Willie's used boat site, but if you read on it says "KEEP CHECKING BACK CAUSE I WILL ADD MORE AS WE GET THEM."

If you're not in a hurry it seems like a good resource. Lots of Willie owners upgrade to newer Willies.

[Big Willie]

Lots of proud Willie owners, sleds and drifters, myself included. I love my driftboat, welcome aboard Willie!

[WILD WILLIE]

All i want to say is, I am glad to be on board with Jennie. And it is awesome to see the replies from people that have my boats.
I am looking forward to a long term relationship with I-Fish. Seeing as how i grew up in Tillamook, its like coming back home. And i must say Jenn, You have one he**
of a beautiful site targeted to the best people in the world, FISHERMAN...

[Williedrifter]

I also just bought a Willie drift boat! I haven't had it long but I've been a proud willie owner since. It's a 94 but it looks like it's brand spanking new. Very nice boats. Welcome willie. images/icons/grin.gif

[willierower]

Well my user name says it all. I sure like mine. The only thing I dont like about it is. Its a 16x54, I wish I would have gotten a 17x54. Or even an 18 footer, Now thats a boat. My buddy has one and I beg him to let me row t when we fish together.

[RW]

Hey Wild Willie, there are some of us fisherwomen that row your boats!!!! One of only one on the north Oregon coast rivers, and one of three that I know of up here in AK. You do have the best boat around. Keep up the good work. RW

Spooled great looking boat. Wild Willie would like to say that South River Marine up here is great to deal with when buying one of your boats. I am about two weeks away from my 17' drift boat being here I hope. Dave over at South River has been a huge help in ordering it the way I wanted. Thanks again and keep up ther great work.

[Nanook]

Back to the top to "hit up" Wild Willie for a new Willie logo hat. images/icons/grin.gif My lucky old one blew off and sank on the Columbia while running my open Predator before I traded it in. images/icons/grin.gif Come on Willie images/icons/grin.gif I own a Willie Asaltor and a Willie driftboat. Can't catch fish without my hat.


Blatant public begging ain't it is ? LOL!

[Jennie@ifish]

I need a Willie hat too!
Where, Willie, where do you get them?

Jen

[Spooled]

I know where 2 of those hats are. 1 is at the bottom of the Clackamas (right Dave), and it sounds like one is at the bottom of the Columbia. images/icons/grin.gif

[smilesforu]

I floated in a Willie today..do I get a hat too. images/icons/grin.gif

[Deleted User]

As moderator of ifish BB I think that a Willie driftboat for my use would be in order. Don't all of you? C'mon. Jen buy it for me then okay? images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif
