I built a BBIII last summer/fall, when it came time to buy the motor I asked about the same question here and based on the advice given I bought a Yahama 4 stroke 40 hp. I hunted the ocean and bays on both sides of Cape Cod all winter and it is a great fit. Pull start, 1st pull every time any...

I can't thank all of you who have given me the many tid bits of advice I have received along the way. JUST GOT BACK WITH THE NEW 40 YAMAHA 4 STROKE. I think its going to be the right choice for me based on much of the discussion here. I am glad I posted this subject or I would have bought...

Based on the advice here I have revised my shopping list, I will let you know where I wind up but I believe it is bigger and maybe 4 stroke. Just finished the FME light grey, looks good, can I get some assistance to post pics?

Wow, a lot to think about, Did not realize the difference in two and four stroke were so huge, the weight may be an issue to consider. Beginning to think maybe I do need to look at a little bigger motor, gonna take a look at that. I have tried to be open minded and listen to the advice I am...

Hunting from this boat will almost exclusively be inside of the many south side bays on Cape Cod East of Falmouth or around and outside of the Hyannis Breakwater. Speed is not an issue, can't be late for something you do want to do any more, hahahaha. I may want to drag a scull but that would...

Went motor shopping, I think the best all around fit I found was a Yamaha 4 stroke 25 hp electric start. The advice has been on target so far so I am hoping for some sound feedback. What do you think?

Thanks this really helps.

Hi John, Thanks for the help the floor looks great. I was reading on another post that you had used rubber on your rub rail and on the keelsons. There was a website posted to purchase but also a mind boggling array of choices, do you know what size and configuration you used and how was it...

great thanks.

Hi, Looking for a little advice, I added a self bailing floor to my build got it all installed. Looks pretty good. Having a time figuring out pics. Do I just tape the edges and glass the floor area or do I cloth the entire floor?

Good luck, I had the stent thing 13 years ago, worked out great, I was 42 years old. I highly recommend it. The pictures are really amazing and you will probably feel like a new man immediately.

Thank you

have seen several boats paint blue instead of traditional duck boat drabs. Does anyone have suggestions on what the best colors might be? I will use this boat primarily in nantucket sound and not in marshy areas so that scheme might work better. Thanks In Reply To

Sure I would be interested in checking out another boat.

Yes the "motor well "design is what I was asking about

I have a question, and I wonder if someone has a little advice. I have been looking at the Scaup plans and at other boats. I noticed one boat where the transom was not fully cutout. I have seen the same thing in a lot of the shellfishing boats here on the Cape. Would it add to the strength of...

Devlin Scaup, so the posted build will really help. I have a question, and I wonder if someone has a little advice. I have been looking at the Scaup plans and at other boats. I noticed one boat where the transom was not fully cutout. I have seen the same thing in a lot of the shellfishing...

I am a new member started building my boat today. The instructions on this forum will be a great help. Spent a lot of time trying to figure out the scarf joints until I hit on this http://www.oneoceankayaks.com/stitchglue/plyshophtm/scarfjig2.htm
