Well thought out Bob, and I agree. Thanks.

When I finished my first wooden duck boat the thought crossed my mind to name it "Sportin' Wood". Never put a name on her though.

I too have a Red Label but mine is in 28 and I absolutely love it. Quality appears to be fine, as I use it for everything but ducks, turkeys and crows. That means dove, quail, occasional pheasant, rabbit and lately even sporting clays. I love the feel of it due to its weight as well as I...

$602.00 Id love to have it!

Looks great, Ive thought about building one but don't know if I should go cheap or all out like I did with my scaup build. I just find it hard to put time and effort into materials which are inferior. Did you build per original design and inexpensive materials or did you use more expensive...

Thank you and God bless you. John

Bob, I believe, after consulting my calculator, the answer is 9. Ask her what's the prize is for the first correct answer. I would also like some more information on this Jeff guy. My wife and I have been considering adoption and he seems to fit the bill.

Two years ago I finished my first boat and I am getting an itch for another project to take me through the long winter nights. So I figure, lets get some "real decoys". I was hoping some of the carvers on the site could chime in on what they believe may be the best place to start. I hunt...

First I assume that the subfloor is OSB (oriented strand board) of which there are numerous brands and qualities. Most are inferior to plywoods, however some in my opinion are superior. Some of the higher quatilty OSB's deflect less than almost all T&G plywoods and there nail holding...

Bob, All four of the eagles I've seen this year have been in Indiana from 275 west to Bryant's.

Bob, I've seen two of these, and a pair of adult bald eagles, on our stretch of the river this season. I've only seen two other eagles around us on the river over the past five or so years. Its kind of interesting to see bald eagles making there way into our area. I'd like to know if...

John, I have been very interested in a marsh boat that could be towed, propelled by small (trolling) motor or propelled with a push pole. Your design looks very interesting, please keep posting progress reports. How will it be constructed, what benifit is the tunnel and how do you think...

What kind of wood is preferred for calls? I may have access to some exotics in some small pieces suitable for calls. All hard woods. Let me know I think I could get these for a highly reduced price (free). If the shipping is worth the savings I would be glad to get the wood to some...

Tom, I would love to see some pictures of the boat. If you could please send me some per your post. Thanks very much. John jhfshhnt@yahoo.com

I have also considered a stitch and glue Hummer type boat that could be powered by a very small motor or push pole. Have not been able to find any plans. Devlin has a small boat to be rowed or poled but I like the dimensions of the Hummer better. Hopefully, someone will chime in with...

I would also like to see it. Thank you. jhfshhnt@yahoo.com

I'm intersted.

Building the Scaup took me four and one half years off and on and was one of the most rewarding experiences I've had. I think you build because you want a boat that reflects you and your style of hunting. If you are interested only in "the hunt" then buy one. If you are interested in...

As the season approaches here in Ky I need to finalize some odds and ends. First, I believe there are some big fans of the neoprene floors. Is this the best option and where do I find it? Second, I would like to get "cordura" type blind cloth and dye it with rit dye to match the FME...

After completing my Scaup this spring I have been thinking of a proper blind for such a boat. The criteria are: -High enough to sit up on seats 12" tall -Easily collapsable -compact while underway and trailering -Form fitted to combing while colapsed -tapered appearance when up so as...
