Right you are on it shipping water. I came across those comments from other reviews as well. After watching lots of utube videos I like the idea of a skirted boat on WW though so I don't much figure it would matter that much. Watching some of those big haystacks fill a boat gets your attention.

Since you have a WW boat and like to fish you are invited. I'll be looking for volunteers in a few years. ;)  All you need is 3 weeks, gas money to get there and enough dough to help pay for the floatplane shuttle back. (Lord willing and if the creek don't rise).........should be a blast.
