    Am I crazy for considering this hull?

    This is a picture of Thom Lindheimer's personal boat. I used it for a waterfowl display I was commissioned to do at the old Cleveland, Ohio Sport, Travel, and Outdoor Show 30+ years ago. I first met him in about 1986? when I became a dealer of his boats. Went to his house and got to check out...

    bankes vs tdb

    If I were in the market for a 17'er, I'd take a good look at the Duck Boss 17' boat. Tom is a supporter here and is quite the craftsman.

    Tod, thanks for clarifying. I just wanted to know if you felt I had blatantly spammed one of my businesses here or abused the classifieds selling off company assets.

    TDB Classic remolding time

    DHughes, I can appreciate your comments, but Tony isn't starting a new company; he bought some molds and a name that had basically been un-used for years. He did something similar when he bought the Busick plans and layout molds from Paul that had been sitting around for years un-used. The...

    OK Tod, I'll bite; why do you think I need to become a sponsor here? I honestly can't recall promoting any business I am involved with on this site.

    TDB Classic remolding time

    How will a reverse, (hollow) strake bite the same as a regular strake? As a regular strake projects down into the water and catches in a turn, I don't see how a reverse strake will bite the same. I do understand it is a much easier and less expensive and less labor intensive way to modify a...

    TDB Classic remolding time

    Can you explain why you are doing "reverse strakes", and how they will help with performance? And on a related note, with as much feedback as you are garnering and as much of Eric's bandwidth as you are burning up promoting your new company and boats, I surely hope a sponsorship check for...

    Questions about Bankes layout boats?

    Don't have any personal experience with the Revolution 2 man, but the Hercules I do. I've towed one at 34 MPH by the GPS. It's heavy, you'll need separate trailer for it. Very comfortable ride though. Get the cockpit cover for it so it doesn't take on water while towing. There is plenty of...

    Bosque del Apache NWR

    Interesting that the collared Snow didn't have a leg band. That's also a great comaprison of the difference between Snows and Ross geese.

    Field hunters for Geese need a lil advice

    As long as you stubble it up to match the field you should be fine. An even better scenario is if you can put it out and let the geese get used to it for a few days before hunting.

    Busick: foot room

    Andy, that looks good. As long as you don't increase the total cubic inches of displacement, and you don't change the displacement location too drastically from current location relative to the center mass of the load the boat will carry, your boat should still float level. And, I would...
