A highlight of the Nord West Drifter is the tremendous dry storage
capacity which has never been seen before in another drift
boat. The 26 cubic feet of dry storage is seamlessly arranged
into 4 distimct sections:
TheBow or Front Storage comes with a 13" by 30"
hatch that allows the storage of large items such as sleeping
bags & clothes. This is ideal for those long outings
- a three day trip to Montana's Smith River for example.
An optional tray limiting the depth of the storage can
be installed for easy access to smaller items.
The Front Pedestal Storage can either be used for dry
storage or as a live well.
TheSide Storage Compartments on either side of the rope
seat allow easy access for the rower. The 11"x13"
hatches can be fitted with a liner to limit the depth
and keep small items such as binoculars or a camera at
close range. These compartments can also be fitted with
a 6" round hatch providing access to a rear passenger
or to fit a shot gun with a 30" barrel from the rear.
In addition to the significant dry storage space, the
Rear Open Storage can be used as a temporary trash
holder, or to store other items.
