    Permanent Blind plans

    Thanks all for the reply?s. I am going to make the blind and anchor it to the marsh with an earth anchor and dock chain. Leave plenty of chain to let it float when the marsh gets flooded. Leave it out there year round.

    Permanent 4 man blind plans

    Going to replace some really old blinds on the marsh and I'm looking for plan ideas. I need to be able to bring the blind out to the marsh by boat. So I would like to build it at home, take it apart and put it back together on site. Will be using battery tools on the marsh. Anyone have any...

    How did everyone's season end?

    My season ended rather quickly due to the three feet of snow that fell last week. Other than that it was a great Sea Duck hunting season. Plenty of migrating birds this year.

    Duckboat painting

    I re-read the painting an aluminum boat by Lou Tish and he doesn't mention sanding the primer coat prior to finish coat. Do I need to sand between coats?

    Yesterday I put the A/G primer on the hull and was going to paint with the FME paint today. Well we are expecting thunderstorms and downpours throughout the day. So now I am going to paint tomorrow. Should I do anything to the primer coat or just wipe it down with a clean rag and paint...

    Too Paint or Too Decal

    Would it be safe to sand the whole boat with 80 grit? Then prime the whole boat with a primer that has an etching agent included? Finally finish with the finish coat.

    Too Paint or Too Decal

    I have a 2007 20Lund Alaskan that I am rehabbing and wondering whether to paint it or not. Right now it's got the black paint from water line to 3 inches from the rail. Should I just sand it down prime and paint or buy a camo boat decal kit and slap it on? Is aluminum hard to paint? Do the...

    Tiller or Side Steer

    Can I get some Lund Alaskan owners to post some photos of their boats? How they set up the deck with decoy storage, dog ramps and blinds. Need some ideas on setting up the boat for sea duck hunting.

    Tiller or Side Steer

    With the responses form my earlier post another question has come up. I am removing the Dual console from a 2007 20 foot lund. I want to go to a tiller but some say side steer is better. I can keep it a side steer by just removing the other console. What are the benefits of having a...

    Outboard power advice

    Hey Sarge, Went out a couple of times. Warm weather seems to be really screwing with migrators. How is your late season going? As for the reason to go tiller... Was thinking about setting out long lines of decoys alone. Seems it would be easier to control the boat and set from a tiller...

    Outboard power advice

    Thanks for all the advise guys. Boat is rated 125 hp remote steering and 90hp tiller. I think the 90 hp tiller set up would be best for me. Now to choose a brand of outboard. On my 20' Gloucester G-20 I run a Suzuki 140 and that engine is bullet proof so far. But lund recommends the Mercury...

    Nice spot. The weather in Massachusetts has been way to warm as well. Ducks here seem to be the bread fed variety. Cannot wait until it gets real cold and icy.
