looking for a transporter; airboat, ivishak river

[jklingel]

at the Sag river launch several days ago, i spoke w/ a airboat operator who does drop off hunts on the sag/ivishak/echooka, and did not think to get his name in case i decide to quit hauling my ***** myself. he lives in palmer and just had a carbon fiber prop disintegrate and blow holes in his hull on the Sag, sinking and losing the boat. i figure he might be willing to make me a good deal next year to help pay for the new boat.... kidding. if you know his contact info, please PM me. thanks. john

T n T isn't operating this year and the white camo boat usually is booked.
Can you be more specific?

bk: thanks. all i can add is that he is about 5'8", white male, maybe 160 lbs, dark hair, probably 45 yrs old. i don't recall much about the second boat they were working on, or the trucks. boat looked about 18-20', but it is kind of hard to say since the prop eats up 98% of the hull space. i suspect there are not too many guys from palmer running up there, so sooner or later i will track him down.

Could it be Randy with Gold Rush Adventures?

rob: thanks. i will look into that. as far as who it could be, i know jack stink. FAIK, it could be "the reincarnation of paul revere's horse" (from a bob dylan song). cheers. john

There's another guy that may be doing transport this year. Hes not on this forum but he is on facebook. You can message him at "nosner equipment" through messenger.

 

[jklingel]

Thanks, ...guy. Was up there since this post in '18 and there is a city there now. Crazy.

 

[npnewguy]

Well, dang. I may go back up this year myself. I'll decide after draws come out.

We did a couple of trips out with DEAD HORSE OUTFITTERS. They would do unscheduled drop offs if you show up and can wait for a open window.
