I went to the Remington Armorers School several years ago and remember that the shell keepers fit into a slot inside of the reciever and are staked into place. When I say staked, I mean that there is a simple tool that fits inside of the reciever and allows the armorer to strike the tool with a...

Thanks Ed, I saw the post of the steering system and look forward to this part of my project, hard to beleive the 30# motor was able to pust the boat that well. I've got a 37# motor set aside and I hope I can get the same performance. I'll be taking plenty of pictures when the build...

ONE WORD RESPONSE... WOW

Thanks Scott, Right now I'm leaning towards keeping the cockpit in the same basic position and installing a cable steering system with remote control for powering the trolling motor and forward/reverse toggles. I had not thought to raise the rear of the cockpit for backwash, probably would...

Don't know why I didn't think of this before now, but I have access to some larger sheets of cardboard 4 x 5. I can probably get enough sheets to build a full sized mock-up with the changes I'm thinking about. The nose piece and transom can be fabricated to spec using foam and then glued into...

My hunting partner is a Game Warden and says that the places we'll use the boat will be accessible through feeder creeks or nearby channels. I'm curious if the larger profile will make the boat better for slightly rougher water. Unsure as to align the ribs so that the top line is even with the...

Sorry, somethinig important came up at work and had to exit without a signature. Any help or thoughts are gratly appreciated. I will be posting pictures as the boat progresses. Thanks, Chuck

I have the plans for a Kara Hummer from Rob Leonard and I am preparing to begin construction, unless my wife comes up with a longer honey do list. I wondering if there are any opinions (pro or con) for modifying the boat design. I plan on squaring one end of the boat and lenghting to 14 feet...

Good tool for low light, low visibility. By the times ducks get to North Carolina they seem to be very cautious since the've seen every gadget and heard every known call to mankind. I beleive that the spinners get their attention and may cause them to take a look at your location, but unless...

I anticipate using it on some public lakes (Jordan, Falls, or local bodies of water). I hunt with a Game Warden and he feels that there are some unhunted spots in the backwaters of our gamelands. I'll also trailer it to Missouri and hunt some conservation areas there next year. I saw where...

Enjoyed the story, I hunted near Kennett, MO January 4th through January 8th. This was when the cold spell that came through and forced all of the birds south to Mississippi and Arkansas. We had a great time even without the birds, but your adventure is much more interesting reading. We were...

Thats what I'm talking about nothing but friends here. Chuck

I wanted all to know what a class group of guys you are. I have been logging on to this site for the last month or so researching layout boat plans, to get an idea of what I wanted to build during the off season. I never posted because I didn't have any wisdom to impart. What I realized over...
