Safety in a boat is the first thing. Would not buy a boat if I wouldn't trust it. Wife wants you safe, she needs a babysitter... Hang out at decoy shows, DU events and talk to guys and wjat they use. All boats have limitations, Some days I just won't launch it, I'll go to a safer spot...

Lou tisch... Bought bodies and heads and made a great rig. Originals carved by world class carvers.

Anthony, great look back into the heritage of gunning on long island. Hope it will be preserved and documented in a museum. So much gets lost and thrown away. I have a marsh box that was said to be made at the old Tupper Boat House in Southampton, was made for the Frankenbach rig in southampton.

Steve, poured slugs like pic #6 but horizontal with stainless nail through my hole. Like the hidden weight you did.

Call the maker and ask what material the boat was constructed with...

A few of the local guides use a ice eater and a honda generater for their shore blinds. I have a spot on a channel that stays open, but hard to launch.

Afriend gave me a piece of osage to carve him a duck. I hit it with the foredom a few times and placed it on the wood shelf to rest for a while.

Wear your pfd, the life you save my be your own! Be safe out there.

I like a hand held plugged in to 12v. Never had luck with portable handheld. All my running lights are hard wired.
