Thanks John.. I have in my mind that the 2-stroke performs better in the weeds, but I'm guessing it's just in my mind. We just need more water! I see that you have a much higher transom mount than I have. Might make a difference getting into shallower water. Pulled the boat out today as I'm...

I have it grassed up now with flapper boards and I'm carrying 16 decoys and my dog. It makes quite a difference to performance, but it is acceptable. If I had to go a long distance I'd just tow it. I'm really wondering if there is a difference in performance of the 2 vs 4 stroke in the weeds...

Th Suzuki is fuel injected - This was the reason I selected it as it is supposed to sip fuel. The 9.9, 15 and 20 hp are all on the same block and I don't think there is any weight difference between the 2 and 4 stroke. The Suzuki is <=100 lbs. It be about 450 CAD to convert to 20 hp. I was...

This boat keeps coming up on my Facebook feed. Looks to be in great shape. https://www.facebook.com/share/17TbN6Yo3i/

No updates for a while. Boat was in the water, I've only hunted from it here on the opener. Water levels in the St. Lawrence River are very low and we are really limited where we can hunt. Parked it at our wharf a coulpe of weeks ago and there it sits ... high and dry. I hope to get it out...

I did not make the frame. A retired framer made and it sat in his building for 12 years ... the new owner need the space and sold it. I'm more of the Lego builder :-). The posts. beams and rafters are white pine, all the braces are black walnut and the King posts and tie beams are all cherry...

Hi Steve, Been offline for a while now.. putting up a small timber frame for my pizza oven and it's taken a little longer than I anticipated. Been a fun project. I've scanned and shared the book with Eric. I think he will post it to the resources section. I scanned it with my phone, maybe...

A Canadian Perspective. I think Brad has explained I well, but as a Canadian, and a waterfowl biologist I'm not sold on the current version ofd AHM. There are a few species of waterfowl that historical harvests were about equivalent between Canada and the USA. For most species/populations...

Been away for a while and just catching up on various threads. I have a little book put out by the New Brunswick Museum called "Catch a Line". It's been years since I read it, but it does provide a field method for copying lines off boats. Book is ~40 pages. I could scan it if someone is...

I've been off line for a while - I'm out visiting friends in Alaska and just getting back to the computer. I've only had the boat in the water a couple of times. I can't complain, I got quite a bot of contract work with my other boat. Anyways, I cannot comment on performance as I've only used...

Just a quick update. Managed to get the boat on the water last night. Not used to running in such a small boat -- very low on the water and felt more like I was riding a surf board than a boat. Handles really well with a 15 hp, must rip with a 25. But I forgot my phone so no pics. She's...

I renovated an old Unisaw a few years ago and I used Boeshield T9 spray on the trunnion gears. Have not opened touched it in several years and still working great. The other option was Johnson paste wax. Both of these do not gum up with sawdust. I don't think I'd use silicon if it gets on...

I'm sure I would not have finished it if you and other's had not been so helpful. The physical structure of the boat has changed from a built on frame to something more similar to the structure of a stitch-and-glue. My feeling is the hulls much stronger now and that is mostly thanks to your...
