    Valco made those pram in 8, 10, 12 and 14 feet in length.

    They are no longer made.

    They are very famous fly fishing prams becuase they are light, wide and flat bottom so they are very stable.

    Most Jon boats to 12 feet are only 36" wide at the bottom. These are 44" in all lengths.

    I had a 10 footer and probably should have kept it.

    It is about 100# and made of 0.050" aluminum.

    Perfect for 1 or 2 people.

    I believe the hull was about $1,100 alone a few years ago just before they quit making them.

    Somebody better jump on this deal.

    I had one and sold it to Don Rotsma at Davis Lake.

    It is a killer 1 or 2 person fly fishing pram that you can stand and cast in.

    It is the widest 10' pram available and is only about 100#s.

    Mike,

    Have you sold the pram yet?
    I would like to take a look at it before I make an offer. I will be heading to Sacramento next week but going up to the Amador FF club on Tuesday and the Motherlode Club on wednesday.

    I'll call you to set up a time. I need to see if I can pick it up and load it in my truck. Is it registered? We is the model year?

    Thanks

    Jay

    Hi Jay,

    I'm Randy (fshnbum). I posted this boat on the Message Board for my friend Mike.

    I know the hull is registered (still valid), but I'm not sure what model year it is. I have asked Mike for this information and will provide an update. Feel free to give him call if you need additional information.

    Best regards,
    Randy/ fshnbum
