I'm not plugged in like I used to be. I've heard of mortalities of Canada Geese in Prince Edward Island, Pennsylvania and maybe Ontario this winter. I think I also heard of a die off of sea ducks (eiders and scoters) in the Nantucket area. I heard it third hand so not so reliable, but I don't...

I am thinking about this. I'm already contemplating of adding snaps so I can quickly change the camo. I'm thinking of having some grey fabric that will snap on to hunt in more open water, or white to hunt at the end of the season when there is ice an snow.

The foam in the bow compartment is not pour in foam - it is pieces of extruded polystyrene. The sponge saturated with epoxy might work, it did not get as hard as I had expected, I guess a lot of the epoxy was lost when I squished it into the hole. I was also thinking about metal anchors - but...

Dave/Roy, I went with plastic lumber. It is not composite deck material, but solid plastic decking. I made the sections for grassing 8" long by 1/4" high. I don't think you can break it -- it has a bit go give, but very little over 8". If it does not work, I will use webbing. I'n...

This one is not a Devlin design... it was a home built from a ClarksCraft (https://www.clarkcraft.com/cgi-local/shop_responsive.pl?type=item&categ=009&item=933012352&cart_id=c0bf8e7cd28a0fbaf7f2313f1183450e.) Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how it handles. I bought it second hand last fall to...

River opened up this week ... earlier than expected. I have a 21' canoe with a 15 Suzuki and I was able to get to the cabin for the weekend. I'd hoped to make that trip in the BlueBill. For now, I will use the 15 Suzuki. I might convert it to a 20 hp, but I'll wait and see how it handles...

I ended up making the grassing rails from plastic decking. I got it from a local producer and it is not a composite product with a coating. We'll see how it works out. I ripped it into 2 1/8" wide strips, and following Eric's build, drilled 5/8 holes down the centreline with a forester bit...

We keep our boat at the marine in St. Anne de Sorel. It's a 22' Stanley Plusecraft. You can't miss it.. We love being on the water in the spring flood ... here is our chalet with 7 /12 ' of water under it.

It was crazy warm here this weekend. There was + 3 1/2' of snow in the yard on Saturday. I thought I had lots of time. My trailer, which was lost in the snow on Saturday appeared this morning - must of lost more than a foot of snow. Should be able to get a boat on the river this week. And I...

Hi John, Off topic a bit. We have a chalet in Îles de Sorel on the Lac St. Pierre. I'm located in Sorel-Tracy. There are a lot of Jon boats here and they navigate some rough water. Not out not out on the open lake, but around the islands and across the seaway. I've seen them cross seaway...

Bit more progress. I have the combing on for the spray dodger. The inside of the hull is sanded and just a few more touchups before I can paint the inside of the hull. Made a bit of a mistake with the 5200. I was sure I read that it was sandable somewhere. Left a couple of lumps here and...
