I just heard from a south Oregon coast buddy that "Pavati" has purchased "Willie" boats????????. Does this mean I can finally by a new "Willie" with side door's??????. Interesting "Rumor". Good luck,

SZ

Bet the price goes up. Willie has always been great to deal with... Hope it isn't true.

Can't imagine that the nicest driftboat on the market would
want the ugly duckling.

I'll burn all my Willieboat hats.

It wasn't the doors that got me it was that bull nose on the lower bow that looked like a can opener to me:) still don't understand that....

Rumor "debunked"!

I called them and some of the guys there also heard about this rumor, but he said it's not true.

He also added "We would never sell to them" LOL.

I'm happy to stay in the willie family.

Toff, come by... let's make this door this happen on the 16x54.... Make sure we drink about 4 IPA growers before hand as well. It will help with brain storming where we can reweld the new structural integrity on the bow
