Todd, I am really a large tall. I'm 6'1" and weigh 175-180, My arms and legs are long, I have a 37-1/2 sleeve, and that is hard to get. I almost ordered the Sitka wader jacket for 500 beans the other day, but the sleeve length is 36 for the large, and extra large is usually too big for me, and I...

Sage advice right there!

Joe Friday, you have just a great story about your life right there, and I applaud you. I am 66 and was self-employed as a manufacturers rep in the auto parts business for most of my adult life. It served me well and there is nothing like being on your own. For the last year I have worked as a...

Hi Todd and thanks for the input, those are sold out

Geoff-are you referencing the Sitka wading jacket or a neoprene jacket with the zipper?

I admire you for taking on this project, as I do all others that have worked to get the skill set needed to be able to do this. You are going to have a fine boat when you are done and I look forward to seeing it.

Eric-you are correct about the true sneakbox hull, and the boat I was referring to was more like what Randy noted just above, and definitely not a BBSB, but similar in look(on top) and use. I hope Chris Finch is doing well, I miss hearing about his mushroom adventures and his hunting and...

Hi Eric-I think I remember somebody on here selling one years ago, and they may have been from Connecticut. I'm hoping somebody here will turn up that knows more about it and maybe the builders name. The welding was something else, and I think it was something the builder wanted to do, because...

There was a guy around Manahawkin NJ about 15 years ago building a boat like that. I know he sold a few. It was welded and fairly heavy gauge aluminum.

Thanks, I will convert to metric and look again!

nice find Anthony

H Bennet-thank you, I saw this product elsewhere (I think it was on Amazon), it just isn't wide enough for what I need. Thanks for the input though, all is welcome.

Looks good Scott!

Don't be sorry Geoff, that is a nice product, and I appreciate your idea. It's just a little pricey for a 30Y/O duck boat.

OK, thanks for the feedback. So far I checked on Taco's website to see if they had edging that was any wider, and I have a roll of the widest and it is too narrow. Steve, I have to see if I can find a sample of that product. I had seen it somewhere else before but you had to buy a 250' roll and...

Because they are there!

Hi Roy and thanks for your ideas. I do have some of the Taco edging material but it will not cover the rivets. I was originally going to take the top off of the boat, but it was sealed so tightly that I realized I needed to leave it as is or I would create another problem. If I can find a 3/4"...

I am doing some work on my AA Blackjack and also need to replace the rub rail, but I want a softer rubber or similar product. What I need to cover is 3/4 wide X 1/4 deep. I am thinking of using automotive heater hose. There was originally some U channel molding on there that was soft vinyl or...
