Don Hill boats have a great reputation for design and quality. The only consideration I would have is if it were built from a kit that the build quality was good. A poorly built boat of any kind isn't worth having at any price. Otherwise, if the boat is in great shape for a fair price, I would go for it. I own a Willie but I would really like to have a wood drifter for the quiet, the feel, and the beauty of the wood. I have heard that if you don't seal them up well when you finish/paint them, a wood drift boat can soak up water and get heavy. Good luck!!
