    Roy schellinger sneakbox molds

    In a few years when my boys get older I plan on something like this. Find an old glass hull, cut it down and put on sides and flaps like Roy?s. Could be wrong but Pretty sure that?s all he did way back when. Then just made a top mold. A lot of guys in Salem county did it and look just like...

    Jim Schmiedlin decoys

    I never tire of seeing pictures of Jim?s decoys, rigging, etc... What a craftsman. I wish I could have met him. Does anyone have any pictures of his tender and layout boat? Some action shots would be nice to see.

    Pat, Stewart McDonald seem to be the choice of most of the carvers I know. Look to be high quality. Hope to get one soon.

    Mystery Sneakbox - ready for Winter (almost)

    Hey Steve. Im working on repainting, new canvas, and floorboards now so I have a few progress pics of the boat that I?ll post. More to come in a new post. I?ll have to take some more detailed shots when I pull it out of the shop. Mine is certainly not ?original? I run a 15 horse Suzuki, none of...

    Mystery Sneakbox - ready for Winter (almost)

    Hey Steve. Nice find. I will say I?m not sure of the maker, but my Heinrich?s is a different Hull shape. It?s a planing hull. I did hear before that Sr. Did make a displacement style. My boat is registered as a 1946 so is one of the early ones. The frames are sawn cedar. But we?re split into...

    Marine grade plywood

    I?ve had good luck with South jersey lumbermans in mays landing. Doesn?t look like much but Steve can get you anything you want.

    Help IDing Mercury outboard

    Thanks guys. Looks to be early 80s. And i agree, at some point it must have been stolen. A real shame. I talked to a local merc dealer and did some more research and it looks like alot of the parts are no longer available. I think I will throw a new prop on my Suzuki and see how that performs...

    Help IDing Mercury outboard

    Hey guys. This motor was given to me years ago and I never got around to fixing it up. I?m planning to use it on my 16 ft garvey (the 15 Suzuki isn?t enough). I cannot seem to find the model number anywhere on this motor and I would like to get a manual and parts for it. I?ve done many...

    Nice work! Is that a little wood stove? What is the hose coming off of the front?

    Great work Paul. This is something I think about doing a lot. What are the dimensions of the cabin?

    Eric, beautiful work and restoration. There is just something special about Toyota trucks. Not sure what it is. Im on my second and surely not my last.

    Name the Houseboat

    Paul, great work all around. I am very intrigued by this idea. With my primary boat use being saltwater, I wonder if a larger Carolina skiff would be a good candidate for something like this. Do you have interior pics?
