Drift Boat Magnet – Pewter Fridge Magnet, Made in USA

Affectionately known as a "Drifter," the Drift Boat is a specialized watercraft designed for navigating rivers and streams. Anglers favor it for its exceptional stability and maneuverability in moving waters. Its flat-bottomed hull and distinctive bow and stern shape make it perfectly suited to techniques such as fly fishing and drift fishing. The boat is often called the "Dory" after its historical origins in the North American fishing dory, and it lets anglers reach remote, shallow fishing spots that larger boats cannot access. Drift Boats are typically propelled by oars, giving precise control when navigating currents and eddies. They are built for durability, with wooden, fiberglass, or aluminum frames that withstand the rigors of river navigation, and they come equipped with comfortable seating, casting platforms, and ample storage for fishing gear. Whether you are floating down a tranquil river or running challenging rapids, the Drift Boat is the ultimate companion for anglers seeking unforgettable fishing adventures in flowing waters.

Craft & construction

Powerful magnets that actually hold. Our magnet strengths have a pull rating of at least 3 lbs, and go up to 7 lbs for larger pieces. These are not the cheaper ferrite/ceramic magnets. They are high quality neodymium and pack enough pull-strength to grip firmly and hold to a refrigerator with more than a single sheet of paper or photo between. Our magnets are bonded in our studio by an artisan with an industrial-strength adhesive to ensure they never come loose.

Hand-painted, marine-grade finish. Each hand-painted piece is carefully painted by an artisan right in our studio in Port Gamble, WA. The proprietary multistep process includes priming each piece followed by meticulous painting by hand in acrylics with fine detail work to bring the item to life with incredible detail. The final step adds a coating of marine-grade epoxy — a hard, clear finish that protects the artwork so our product can be used on a boat, outside, or other conditions highly resistant to fading or wear.

Certified American pewter. The antiqued finish is completely safe to touch — and the craft behind it has been refined over three decades. Each batch of pewter that arrives at our shop in Port Gamble, WA from an American supplier comes with a lab test showing the material is lead free.

Ready to give. Every item arrives attached to a backing card and sealed in plastic — clean, protected, and presentable as a gift the moment it arrives.
