Custom boat builder Terry Hunt, Penticton British Columbia 

Have you ever looked at a lake and thought, "If only, if only I could get out a bit further where the fish are rising?" 
It's happened to all of us fly fishers at one time or other - when it would have been perfect to have had a small, light but sturdy watercraft that would enable you to get out further from the shoreline. Far enough so that our casts would land where the rising fish were. 
Or perhaps you've just wanted a small boat that was easily transportable so that you could row around your favorite pond or lake? 
Terry Hunt of Penticton British Columbia has been making this dream a reality for many with his custom designed handmade 8' and 10' flat-bottomed fly fishing boats. Referred to as a "Pram Boat," The Gillie 8' weighs 65 pounds and The Gillie 10' weighs 110 pounds. Constructed out of top grade materials The Gillie prams are built to last! 

The Gillie Pram Features:

• Top of the line premium grade BS1088 Lloyd's register type approved marine plywood.
  
• All seams are reinforced with fiberglass inside and out of the hull.
  
• Clear finish inside and out of the hull, or optional painted exterior. Choose any color.

Some people wonder why a flat-bottomed pram might have an advantage over a float tube or pontoon boat? Actually, there are many reasons to choose The Gillie over the admittedly popular float tubes and pontoon boats including:

The Gillie prams are unmatched for stability.​

• ​Flat bottomed means nothing for fly lines to get snagged on.
  
• ​Five minutes or less to get into the water with The Gillie. How long would it take you to get into your waders, put on your fins, put together the pontoon boat and get to the water? A lot more than five minutes.
  
• More versatile, no fins required.​

The Gillie prams are lightweight, solid, whisper quiet, easy to row, and stable! Client testimonials available upon request.
