After taking a good look at the deck and seeing several places that probably needed attention, I decided I needed to sand through all of the paint, epoxy, and fiberglass layers to get a good look at what lurked underneath. Someone on duckboats.net suggested using a butane torch to remove...

Hi, Steve! The inspiration behind the boat's name is self-serving to say the least. I am a Presbyterian minister, and when I was building my Broadbill, I needed a name that my secretary could use to get me out of trouble. So if someone called to speak to me and it wasn't an emergency, the...

It's funny how duck boats come into our lives. I built a Devlin Broadbill back in 2012 and loved hunting out of it solo. Now that I'm in my 50's, I no longer enjoy hunting alone, so I've been searching duckboats.net regularly for a bigger boat, specifically a Black Brant III. Now most BBIIIs...

Hey folks! I'm just getting into airbrushing and wanted to know what colors I should buy in the Chroma line of paints. From what I have gathered from the internet, most companies suggest the following colors -- chestnut, driftwood, nutmeg, raw sienna, sable, and taupe. On my table to paint...

Hey folks! I'm looking for a short shaft, two-stroke, 25-35hp tiller handle motor to push a gently used BBIII. I'm located in North Alabama. Grace and peace! David

John, Let me know what I owe you. Sure do appreciate you passing the waders along! Grace and peace, David

Thanks, Eric.

Unfortunately, I do not have the name of the builder. Eric Patterson might know who it was. I?ll have to check.

Thanks for the feedback, Huntingdave. I don't have the plans for a BBIII and wondered if the spontoons had any strongbackst. The plywood decking on the spontoons don't feel like they do. Didn't know if I should feel worried if I stood on them. Grace and peace, David

Thanks for all of your responses. My biggest concern was the crack where the combing ends and the spontoons begin. I don't believe the crack extends very far, but it still raised some concern in me. Thanks again everybody! David .

Super. You can mail the waders to my buddy who will be using them this coming season. First Presbyterian Church % Rev. Brandon Miles 224 East Mobile Street Florence, AL 35630 I will pick up the bill. Rev. David Palmer 1100 Alta Vista Avenue SE Huntsville, AL 35801 256-509-2250 Thanks, John!

Hey folks! I came across this BBIII this winter and will be refurbishing it this summer. I have two questions about my boat's spontoons: The cockpit combing does not extend to the spontoons. Should I extend the combing or are there other ways to add support to the spontoons? Also, I believe...

Let me know what shipping will be to 35801 and I'll be happy to repurpose them!

I'd be interested.

I'm in.

I'd be interested in taking a look at it. My Broadbill seems to get smaller every year! Let me know when would be a good time to look at it. Grace and peace, David

Thanks, Roy. I'll give those Espresso Beans a try!

Is there a paint out there in a quart size or less that's a good match for black duck black? I mixed up some burnt umber and some ultramarine blue to make a swatch but Home Depot and Sherwin Williams can't match it. Theirs comes out with a red/purple hue. Any suggestions? Grace and peace...

Thanks Huntindave ... and Dave D too! It's good to be in the company of so many "David's" on this site!!

Dave, How did you prep your PVC for paint? Sand, prime, paint? Grace and peace, David
