Kype/nose and color says "Coho".

Read a post/watched video by OFF member PK YI from 2014, where he and a friend were fishing the Coos Bay area for rock fish from an inflatable raft. From what I could tell, his raft seems very similar to mine, and that got me to thinking "hey, maybe I could try that." I'm putting a plywood...
