I see a few people asking about where Dave Traaen ended up after South River Marine went "south".
I got a call from Dave today and he will be at North River Boats starting today. They already hired Terry the ace mechanic from South River, now they have the ace salesman as well. If anyone is interested in a North River sled, I highly recommend Dave. He is honest and won't sell what you don't need. He is also a nice guy and so-so fisherman.
Good luck Dave.

Have to agree with Spooled %110 about Dave. He will steer you straight about what you do and Don't need in your boat. I was lucky enough to get my drift boat from him just before South River closed up. Good luck Dave, give me a call and lets go get some fish. Sent you an e-mail the other day. Made good use of that oversize fish box you had built for me. Take it easy. Firedog

Dave,

I KNOW you're out there reading this so...I just wanted to say good luck at the new job. Hope you sell LOT'S of those Northrivers.

P.S.....Where's John now? Dave $$ ?
