History
H y d e D r i f t B o at s
In the 1950’s I started to fish the Salt River in Wyoming with my brothers and my father. My father had several
bamboo fly rods with automatic reels. Those bamboo rods are how I learned to fish. The rods came with two tips
so that if you broke one, you always had a spare. As you might expect from boys, we broke the tip several times
so we just kept patching them by moving the tip lower and lower until we were soon fishing with a 6' fly rod
instead of an 8' rod.
From that beginning I have had the opportunity to fish most of the rivers from North Alaska to Southern Chile. I
have been asked many times which river I prefer and my answer is always the same, “My favorite is the river that
I am on at the time.” I have found that I really don’t have a favorite, I like them all. I have fond memories of so
many good experiences on many different rivers.
Fly-fishing has been the method of fishing in the Hyde family for 6 generations. It is still the preferred choice of
fishing for most of us. My grandsons have taken up the sport and have become very accomplished with the fly
rod and also rowing our drift boats. This is especially nice, so that their grandfather can get a little fishing in with
them.
Drift boat manufacturing came naturally to me as I spent many of my early years building airplanes and learning
about the dynamics of flight. I have been involved in the great outdoors all of my life and know personally how
demanding the rivers of the world can be. My first and foremost goal is to build the strongest, safest, most maneuverable drift boats to ensure the safety of our customers. With my sons and grandsons, we now have three
generations in the boat business. The staff at Hyde are committed to making your fly fishing experiences the
most enjoyable, and we hope to see you on the great rivers of the world in a Hyde Drift Boat.
Please give us a call and see the difference our employees can make in helping your decision to purchase your
next drift boat.
I hope to see you soon on the river.

We are proud to introduce the latest models of premium drift boats designed for fishermen by fishermen. This year’s
line continues the tradition of excellence established by Hyde Drift Boats. The proven leader in innovation, Hyde
focuses on delivering drift boats designed to meet the needs of today’s anglers. Hyde uses the best design principles
used by the pioneers of drift boat building, coupled with the latest technology to produce the ultimate drift boat line
available.
Hyde Drift Boats are engineered to deliver unchallenged Performance. With their efficient parallel chine system,
Hyde Drift Boats differentiate themselves by actually leveraging the current and creating a partnership between you
and the water. Created from the finest materials and backed by our lifetime warranty, when you own a Hyde, Durability is guaranteed and your boat is always there when you need it. Hyde Drift Boats offer unmatched Adjustability by
providing removable storage, seats, and leg braces. This allows fishermen to create a floor plan to meet each particular day’s needs.
Throughout your day on the river, Comfort is critical and in a Hyde you'll find it. As you glide through the water and
easily address the rising fish close to the banks, you'll be glad you did your homework when looking for a drift boat.
At Hyde, our boats are designed and engineered to meet your every need, so that you can focus solely on what’s really important—those you are with and the memories you are creating.
Having run technical water for many years, LaMoyne Hyde was looking for a great fly fishing boat. Seeing the need
for such a boat, and using his relevant experience in manufacturing airplanes, LaMoyne he went to work designing
the most hydrodynamic, easy to row drift boat on the market. Over the years boats have been built out of wood,
fiberglass, and aluminum material but never in combination of all three. LaMoyne, being skilled in wood, fiberglass,
and aluminum and seeing the advantages of fiberglass and alumunim, took the best of both worlds to build a hybrid
combination boat.
No other drift boat offers more configurations due to our unique modular design. There are over 1000 accessory,
seating and storage configurations available to meet the needs of any angler. Twenty five cubic feet of storage is
available in a Hyde Drift Boat, nearly double the industry standard.
We invite you to explore the difference a Hyde can make.
Over 500,000 professional guide miles will be traveled in Hyde Drift Boats this year. We've carefully selected
our pro staff advisory team to evaluate our boats each year and rate them on quality, performance, durability and comfort. From this feedback as well as our customers, we make enhancements to meet the
needs of anglers throughout the world. (You’re welcome to contact one of these professionals by visiting our
website HydeOutdoors.com.)
LaMoyne Hyde continues to pass on his commitment
and love for the industry to future generations.
Pictured are LaMoyne Hyde and his grandson.
Owners LaMoyne and J.Ann Hyde
are dedicated to providing the
finest drift boats for the most
memorable fly-fishing experiences.
Beginning in the 1950’s, the Hyde family

The Limited Edition is the most innovative drift
boat design available. This exclusive boat
is designed specifically with the angler
in mind and is limited in its production.
Unlike any other boat available on the
market, the LH Limited Edition offers
side storage throughout the boat
providing a walk through interior.
The full walk-through interior, of
this unique boat, allows the
angler and rower to maneuver throughout the boat
without ever stepping over
a bench or storage box.
From its incorporated fly
boxes to the G4 bottom,
every detail in this boat
has been designed for
the fly fisherman.
Ideal for the most
demanding river conditions, G4 technology
has revolutionized the
amount of abuse a drift
boat can withstand. “Over
two years of R & D have
gone into this product,
we knew how tough it was
from the abuse we inflicted
upon it before we released
it to the public. But nothing
could have prepared us for the
tremendous response and success stories that we've received on
just how durable and slick the G4
really is.” says Jim Kunz, CEO - Hyde
Drift Boats.
After nearly 10 years of use on Hyde Drift
Boats the G4 is still going strong.
Featuring the Hyde Lifetime Warranty, with the
introduction of the LH Limited Edition Series, Hyde
is once again raising the bar in drift boat design.

“After twenty years of guiding I have rowed many different types of
drift boats. Whether we are filming fishing shows or teaching new
guides, my Hyde boat is awesome. It spins on a dime and glides
through the afternoon winds with ease. My boat works with me not
against me. I can pull the boat into an eddy or transverse through a
boulder field. I strongly recommend a Hyde Drift Boat for personal or
professional needs…”

The new XL Low Profile has been a great hit
to the Hyde Boat line-up. With a centerline of 16’ this boat has 50% more
front and rear level floor space then
any other manufacturer, and
nearly twice the storage space!
Its low sides allow easy entry
into the boat and also
allow it to maneuver
much easier in windy
conditions. The
increased footprint
allows the boat
to be stable and
run in extremely
shallow water
while maintaining the
performance
for which
Hyde Boats
are known.
As with all
Hyde boats,
this model
is totally
modular
and can be
configured
to meet any
situation. All
Hyde Boats
feature a
lifetime
warranty.

We’re often asked about color
selection. A dark large stripe with
a lighter small stripe typically
provides the best color combination. When selecting a bow color,
we recommend choosing a small
stripe that is distinctively different
than the bow color in order to
achieve a great custom look.
Below are just a few examples of
the hundreds of color combinations available from by Hyde Drift
Boats.

Drift Boat Accessories, the knee brace can be easily removed when increased storage
space is necessary.
Most accessories, including the storage boxes, are handcrafted at the Hyde Drift
Boat manufacturing facility - ensuring the highest quality workmanship.
Storage Boxes are constructed of lightweight marine grade aluminum.
Not only does this provide a reduction in weight, it also maximizes strength.
Lockable steel latches protect your valuable gear.
The Aluminum Rail System (ARS) provides a secure connection for the lightweight
aluminum storage boxes. With seven positions available, the storage boxes can be
easily adjusted to provide equal weight distribution.
Reverse Recessed Rod Storage provides a convenient way to protect your rods.
The removable liners prevent scratches and the reverse design
allows easy access for both anglers.
The flat footprint design and rigid bottom create lift, reduce drag and minimize bottom turbulence. Parallel chines
provide the ultimate tracking and
maneuverability resulting in the best
performing drift boat available.
With seven separate compartments and nearly twice the
storage available in the industry, the Hyde Walk-Through
Design is just one of numerous modular configurations
available to meet the demands of any situation.
