Recently returned from Montana!  The RivTech was quite a head turner for sure.  The boat is a Ferrari on water… End of story.  The boat was very well-received throughout Montana, especially amongst the guide community.  4 days on the Yellowstone River, 2 Days on the upper Madison River, one day wade fishing the St. Regis River, and a float on the Yakima River to end an EPIC trip !

• “A sweet spring time fish to go along with the sweet boat. That boat rows like a dream, skates across the water, super easy row, and looks good too.”
  
• “Beer, meat, fish stories, not much can get better than that, well, maybe a couple nice women would help, of course that includes the wifey.”
  
• “Here’s a few more shots of the Rivtech. Here you get a good idea of what the profile looks like in the water. It’s a sleek design”

Mr. Todd Ripley (pro) from Rvrfshr http://www.rvrfshr.com setup the photo shoot with his friends from Lamiglass http://www.lamiglass.com who were testing out new oars “sticks” on the water.

Fishing legends like Stam, Richard, Sky-Guy, KK, and the rest of the gang had a great time chasing after spring chromers.Well not just chasing. With Todd at the helm the gang also nailed some nice steelhead.

Take a look at the great photos on the Piscatorial Pursuits forums. Join the forums to keep your finger on the fishing pulse!

RivTech is positioned as a disruptive technology player in the drift boat marketplace. RivTech drift boats are different because of their aerospace composite manufacturing process. Every composite component on a RivTech Drift Boat is manufactured utilizing the Vacuum Infusion process. This aerospace process eliminates voids that you find in boats that are built utilizing the older hand lay-up process and it maintains the proper resin to fiberglass ratio which saves weight, strengthens the laminate and creates a consistent, durable laminate. Boats that are laid up and glassed by hand cannot match the durability or hull integrity that is inherent in all RivTech boats. The use of Multi Axial Fabrics offer far superior strength, less print and significant weight savings. Older Woven Roving technology is eliminated from all components of the RivTech Drift Boat due to the extra weight, lower strength, excessive resin consumption and bulky profile.
