Geoff, is that a shotshell brass base in the keel?

Geoff, is this the same boat your charming bride offered as a raised bed for petunias at the foot of your driveway?? Tom

Geoff, glad to hear the ol' boy is still getting out and about - see you on the coast before corn is planted! Tom

The Remington rep told us last September the 105's tolerances have been "tightened up" which improved it's failure to feed rate over early production (the biggest complaint); should be on par now with other manufacturers. He had the exact numbers, percentages, etc - sounds like when the model...

Google the Fox Collectors website, there is a section for parts wanted, and for sale. I have a letter from a guy that hunts down parts, just have to find it. Tom

what "brand" camo did you use? I have a couple boats the same size, have waffled between different grasses and products. thanks,

answers to questions, sticky or otherwise, in this election year, are appreciated; looking forward to obtaining clean laundry via DHBP...thanks Steve.

'been over the big pond for a while, checking in to see if I missed something regards ordering/paying for the planned DHBP TShirts? Any news yet? thanks...

Bob, your double was made by SKB, and imported by Ithaca, back in the '60's/early '70's. Generally, 26" bbls were IC/Mod, 28" bbls Mod/Full, 30" Full/Full from the pieces I've seen. Often stamped: "*=full", "***= mod", "****=IC". Being fixed chokes, steel shot would not be recommended (varied...

Tried a 2.5 on my Perry Barnegat, struggled with strong current or tide. Added a large oak motor mount, switched to a 4 stroke 6, and it flies no matter what the tide. Heavier motor, but provides a safety factor when needed. Tom

Steve, I'll order two shirts... Tom

You've all said it so well, no need to repeat it from this end. I've learned so much. Have appreciated the overall positive tone, always look forward to reading folks updates without having to deal with a soap opera. Thanks! Tom

My boat does not have grassing rails...had plastic clips screwed into the decking, and elastic cord threaded, which held grass fairly well. Looks like someone else could tell you whether or not the seats help keeping hull rigid, or flotation options? Oars work fine, a 3hp zipped it right along...

While I transport the Herter's boat in the back of a pickup, loaded with gear, and have help scooting it into water, a downside is that the floatation is under the seats, which make it difficult to sit low, on the floor; seats would have to be removed if a low blind was your intent. Have used...

Mike, they would look good next to the two Brant you sent me last autumn! Tom

"Waterfowling - Beyond the Basics" just arrived, ordered on Steve's recommendation. Great colour photos, a range of topics, and authors were pleasant folks to deal with throughout the ordering process! Chapter 15 on hunting's future is timely, and well written. Too bad today is s'posed to be...

Have just ordered a copy...glad to hear a positive review!

Being on the coast, local canvas/dodger maker was able to craft whatever I wanted with either fiberglass wands or stainless tubing and canvas for my barnegat. Cut it down after the first try, and was willing to tweek it as I used it...might be an idea, rather than trying to find a pre fab solution?

Is it common to have mallards and divers in the same area where you are? We usually have one or the other, depending on the turf. Nice job on the boat, good to see a classic still working. Tom

Mike, the brant decoys just arrived, and will be floating off the Maine coast this month. Thanks for the extra effort, they are beautiful... Tom
