    "Transom Saver" on a sneakbox rig

    Just because you've been lucky to not have any trouble doesn't mean its right. A transom saver is a hell of a lot cheaper and easier than rebuilding a transom. I've rebuilt and repaired enough boats to know. Always better to be safe than sorry, especially when its something you want to get the...

    Problems with my rebuilt Larson duck boat

Bought an old 12' (11'6" if ya wanna get technical) Larson duck boat that needed some work. When I bought it, I thought all it was going to take was a...

    Height of Anti-ventilation plate

    Yeah i supose i kind of skipped on the details but im having blowouts while im trying to bring it up to speed. i started at 3 clicks up from the transom and moved down one at a time until i had the pin totally out and when i did that the plate went under water which caused enough drag to keep...

    Height of Anti-ventilation plate

    Hey all, I took out the newest build today for the first time and im starting to question my motor height since it ran so poorly. from what i read, the anti-ventilation (anti-cavitation to some) plate should be just skimming the water surface at WOT (wide open throttle). Another piece said that...

    Some "old" Pintails

    Those are spectacular! Its photos like those that almost convince me to grab my camera and leave the gun at home. ALMOST. You either have an incredible gift for taking pics or one bad-ass camera! (Leaning towards badass camera)

    Anyone using those fancy laser sights?

    I have a laser scope for one of my pistols. Its just a red dot and i think its really slick. I've seen them before for shotguns but didnt know if id like it. A couple weeks ago I'm watching a show called Flyway Highway and the guy wouldnt shutup about his sights. Instead of just a red dot it was...

    When bad times turn good!

    Its actually made of a molded plastic. I wish it were wooden but it probably wouldnt look half as good if it were.

    When bad times turn good!

    Thanks to the unseasonably cold weather we're having this year in Wisconsin, I started my day by crawling under my trailer to unthaw my water lines. While laying on my back, waving a heat gun around, something caught my eye. At first glance I think, "Is that a mallard I see?". Common sense set...

    Another good days hunting

    Good story Dani, but i need closure. How did you fall in the drink? I'm pretty proud i only took a dip once this year. Its a record! I was walking in 6 inches of water and a foot of mud. My boot got stuck and i sloooooowly started falling forward while i tryed to get my foot back into my wader...

    help with layout boat ID

    I never seen one but it sure is cool looking. what are the rest of the dimensions? How deep is the cockpit? Personally I'd buy it for that (try to knock it done a little ofcoarse). and if i didnt I KNOW my dad would. I can see how you could have the pup upfront, if there was enough room for the...

    Question about styrofoam layout boats.

    Hey all, For my winter project I'm thinking about building a layout boat out of styrofoam. I like the idea of having something light-weight that i can lug around by myself. There alot of shorelines I'd like to hunt off of and it would be easier to carry the boat to the spot, than to pull it...
