Webbing works but wood all the way for me. I like the look and the tradition of building then installing the wood

I second the lem. I have the big bite #8 and it is plenty for me.. I like the fact when I wanted to buy different size blades and plates I got to talk to somebody that I could understand that also knew the product. While ordering I asked them about a sausage grinder. They were very helpful .

Tod What are the dealer charging for the install? I'm in the same boat as you, I am looking to replace my pull start , tiller 40 Yama with an electric start. The prices I have got for install was free to $1000. Some dealers stated they need to adjust the engine using a computer. Some said...

Great work Hal. Keep up the good work. This past weekend I was just talking about your trailer Axle Your hole boat refit came out great.

Looks like you guys had a great time. It's nice to see people still putting in the effort to duck hunt. The old school way. thanks for sharing

What's a Paul Kingyon call worth??

If I had to choose between the 25 or the 20 and the 20 was lighter. I would choose the 20. Keep in mind When I have the 2 stroke 25 most of the time it was at maybe 1/2 throttle. When the condition where rough I would slow down and allow the boat bow to go through the wave and let the...

Mike give a shout out to David K . he had a 15 merc on his aero I think he just repowered with a 4 stoke . Ask him about his new to him engine.

Interesting that you had 25 Marina. Tom boats were coast guard rated for 15 but he outfitted a lot of them with 25.mariner he was a merc Marina dealer, I feel the boat does not need to be a 40mpg boat and you have to pay attention while driving. I was having my 25 merc repaired at aero mariner...

Steve , You would be surprised .The local ponds are fenced off, the incoming make noise the ones on the water not as much noise. The sleeping birds stay sleeping if the birds do not land on their side of the pond.

Did Herters ever make a sleeper head? I have the Alert head, the regular head, the feeding head. Half the geese I see on ponds seem to sleep during the day.

I would favor 2 small sneak boxes. I like the fact that if an engine fails you have a tow boat at the ready.

Steve, Seems like yesterday, I was taking the Duck ID course. I was telling Mike about my Southbay and he was telling me about the boat you guys were rebuilding.

I remember seeing the catalog and wishing I had the money to buy things in the catalog. At 12 years old I had no money or job.... So I just looked at the catalogs.

I watched the podcast. Seems George has made more than a few decoys at over 8 thousand, Think about how much cork dust . Wow

loaded I can walk or pole my boat in ankle deep water.

As per Steve, there is steel in the keel. Did you try drilling through the steel to see if you can add a wire and a weight? If you can on windy days you could add the wire and weight. On calm days use without the weight. I did that on plastic water keels. I liked the light weight but on windy...

Dave , you did a fine job with the restore. It looked better that factory new.

Dave: FYI the photo that you posted of the flyer for the sneak box shows Tom Pryers son John driving the boat... They also had one of John wearing hip boots and the boat filled with water.... Steve: Several years ago I asked John why they fiber glassed the plywood rather than duck board...

Hi Nick, You may want to put the draw weight and draw length
