Glad you enjoyed. These adventures are so much fun.

Thanks. They do good work.

Yep - Wasilla

Oh man. You must have known the river very well! Would have been such a cool place back then.

@@RichardNateMiller I did most of those creeks with clients paid for fishing. The Kashwitna was smoking hot for Chinook all the way up to the privet housing development and Moose hunting was also a guarantee to get a Moose in one of the Medows that can't be reached other by boat. One of the Kashwinta Medows no matter how many bull moose we killed in the Medow again next fall was another monster bull moose there with his cows. Best was none of the moose are killed further that 100 yards from the boat. Short pack back to the boat and clean river water to clean Moose quarters. The Kashwitna at the Alaska railroad bridge to 50 yards down steam into a bend of the river has so many Chinook holding there the fish are all over the lines and a bite comes in seconds of dropping any bait or lure in there. Some of the rainbow trout are so big I almost wonder are they Steelhead and the attacked bait wrapped K16's. At times I would leave the Deshka with clients to show them different fishing with zero other fishermen around in the small creeks of the Parks Hwy.

It’s a 200hp Mercury Sportjet package. Motor discontinued last year……

@@RichardNateMiller Thanks for that, I thought it sounded like it but thought Riddle Marine only worked with V8's. The boat must have been a custom build for you, more upright windshield and center console joystick control.

I suppose “crappy” is subjective…. Not many issues with the late gen 200. There are many of us shallow water goers that wish merc would keep making it…. Power to weight can’t be matched without forcing air into a little 4 stroke and downsizing the pump..

I have a 175 merc no problem on the little willow

What kind of Jon boat at the end?

It’s a home built 18’ tunnel hull.
