I don't know about plywood but I use a jet ski trailer with bunks for my aluminum blue bill. Its a fairly light boat so its easy to launch and load. either should work well for you.

I hope you can achieve the level of training that you are looking for. If your interested in positive only training check out Wildrose kennels. Uklabs.com They sell some books and dvds with the approach you want.

Do a little more research into the e-collars as well, they can be very helpful in training. If you have never owned or trained a retriever you will quickly learn why recall and control at any distance is very helpful. I would recommend getting a complete program such as Mike Lardy's total...

Scott, I also have an aluminum Bluebill. Did the same thing of pushing the motor all the way back to the rear instead of the way the original plans were laid out. I found that the change of the C.G. causes the boat to porpoise when I tilt up on the motor to get more shallow. Does yours do the...

This is how I did mine on my aluminum BBIII. sets up and breaks down in about 2 minutes. The top is a beavertail flip top that I adjusted to fit the cockpit area. Works perfect for the river.
