    Sheldrake, 12’ sneakbox

    Mine is very functional, but grossly over built. I would do similar, but reduce the bulk significantly. I can stand on mine! It is very nice to put the decoys in and lock it and keep eyes, and rain out.

    Sheldrake, 12’ sneakbox

    Great minds think alike! I had not seen this before but made a 2 piece cover for the Sam Hunt I restored. Mine overlaps, and the clasps allow for a padlock to secure what is inside.

    Boykin - AKC or BSS?

    I meet a couple sweet Boykins this past week while on vacation in SC. I have always had Labs, but have also had an interest in the AWS as an alternative. The Boykin just hit a soft spot in my heart. They were so friendly, and calm, and driven all at the same time. Not ready to pull the...

    Great Loop Jon Boat

    I followed it closely, and watched the live stream as he crossed is wake. John Bourbon and I have been talking about this ourselves. Not for a record, but for an adventure. He in his Snowgoose, me in my Scaup. It was so cool to see folks step up and help in a moments notice, cheer him along...

    TDB 14 Classic - "Easy" Fix

    Similar to Steve, years ago, 2009 I think, when I refurbished my BBSB, I bought some SS square drive. buggle head screws in several lengths. I use these as "clamps" in all my glue ups. After everything cures, I pull them and fill with thickened epoxy. Been using the same screws for 16 yrs...

    Help With Cancelling Poleboat

    In my South Bay build, I had a similar issue, with a non-square cockpit. I split the sides with 2 flaps. You could do very similar, even making the hide removable. It would square up the cockpit some, but that also affords more space. Look up my SB build in 2023.

    Rail Skiff Build

    I used this on my South Bay Scooter. I had a similar depth to bridge. This worked well. I used a much smaller bit and drilled from the outside first and then from the inside, and when they met, the larger bit followed the not perfect pilots...

    July 2025 What's on your workbench?

    I would guess the sticks are to wrap the line around for storage.
