I do the same as Chad. It works. DW15

I have had a 99 Suzuki DF40 for 5 years that has had zero issues other than replacing the thermostat (I run in salt water) and the rectifier. Not sure if they were ever replaced before then. The thing is older than both my kids put together and I never am really concerned about it.

Something to consider for sure Tod. I also have a set of the broadbill plans. Of course we have a two man layout but it's a tank to tow. 4 can sit in the DW15 but it's shoulder to shoulder. The cockpit is only 100 with the blind down, so it's hard to shoot at all! Building a bigger boat would...

I will say the DW15 I have, once you're beached, you're f'ed. There's no moving that tank with all the weight it is. Length is less of an issue unless it's too big, but in terms of getting beached or not, I'm not concerned because if it gets below 5" of water I'm already waiting 6 hours for the...

😂Time is money. I have neither of those lately seems

Agreed you are just across the pond. Would love to take you up on that offer. Will keep in touch as the weather warms it.. Seems I already have your cell in my contacts.

@William Mills yes it's the duck wrangler 15. The Steve Hoover fiberglass precursor to the duck water aluminum tank. I believe the hull is an '02, with a '99 Suzuki DF40. I've added blind grass to the new blind (fabric remake copied off the original) I had made in 2021. Added a hydraulic jack...

Anthony are those photos to scale? Looks like the sea class is smaller than the classic there. How does the TDB ride in wake? My Duck wrangler 15, which I thought was a similar hull design (modified flat bottomish) bangs pretty hard on wake. It doesn't stop me but it's enough to keep me out of...

We actually downsized a little. The boss told me "the marina" ran out of slips. (Corner of the yard against the woods)

@SJ Fairbank I should clarify that we currently have 3 kayaks, a flat back canoe with a 2.5hp Honda, the dw15, and a two man layout (rarely used). There's also a 23' cuddy cabin in the family for the summer season, but always seems to be pulled before November. Was thinking one of the 17' boat...

@Anthony Babich i was going to ask the same as Mike. My DW15 cockpit is 20" shorter than the tdb17 cockpit. Have you hunted four before? Also curious in the ride. The Freedom hull looks like it would take wake better than the TDB. My DW15 is fine is smaller chop but it bangs around pretty good...

Took the girls (including wife) out for closing day. I've been making noise about needing to upgrade from the DW15 to something more spacious now that Rose is 12 (legal age) and Charlotte is 11. After a long, slow morning, I heard the famous words come out of Andrea's mouth "Nick, now that we're...
