Nice pic of the boat, looks good. I was in the same situation you were in last year. I called Flaming Gorge resort and talked with their Guide Manager. He set me up with one of his guides for the same cost as a trip. The guide was awesome he sat in the back and taught me as much as he could in a day about rowing(plus he didnt seem to mind cause he got to fish and thats a real plus for a guide). It helped a bunch. Why not spend the money to learn to row so you dont sink your boat, thats kinda how i feel about it. I know the Spinner Fall guide service also has a similar program. And I would imagine Trout Creek would be the same. The guide I was with taught me a bunch of safety stuff and how to avoid obstacles and a lot about how to row with different level of anglers and different number of anglers. 1 vs 2. Also a lot about extending the anglers drift by how you row. To me its worth the money to learn because it could be your life or the life of someone your know or your boat. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
