Josh, I'm with you on the scuppers, I will have them on this boat, just have not bored the holes yet. There will be two, one on each side of the splash well between the transom boxes. The transom is a material called Carbon Core which I got from Paxton Supply. It is another version/copy of...

Depending on how much material I need to take down Ill switch between a 4.5" grinder with a 36 or 60 grit flap disk and for big stuff like grinding all the glass form the old fuel tank/console I used a 7" grinder with backing plate and 24,36, and 60 grit paper. I will also use a DA sander...

Hey Steve, The black material is carbon core foam which is similar to Coosa board. Its high density foam with milled fiber embedded in it. The deck is 15 lbs density and the transom is doubled up 3/4" sheets of 28 lbs density. The 28 lbs carbon core also has two layers of woven roving...

Slowly but surely getting some work done on the skiff. I'm having to pick my days now that it is cooling off a bit, the epoxy doesnt like to work to well when it gets cold in the shop. Knocked out my last big chunk of grinding glass where I had to cleanup about 3 layers of paint, gelcoat...

The only trade off with this boat is she's a flat bottom, so any chop and its gonna rattle you a bit. Might limit the ocean and really big water due to weather, just need to be selective on the days you go. I had a 20 ft sea ox prior to this boat which was a v-hull very similar to a Parker or...

We do a little bit of everything so this boat will be perfect. Close to home we hunt some rivers and medium sized bodies of water but we've also got the Pamlico sound and connecting rivers within 2-3 hours so we trek up there whenever we can. Were mostly diver/seaduck hunting but will...

Got some work done on the skiff this past week. Got the stringers put back together and tabbed to the transom, got the garboard drain drilled and jacketed with PVC, rigging tube put in, and got the deck patch fitted and glassed down. Gonna build corner boxes for storage and seating in the...

Hey Guys, I joined this site several years ago while I was still in college and rebuilding/hunting a 20ft Sea Ox. Well post college life got in the way and I've been kinda out of hunting for the past couple of years. I had some issues with the motor on my Sea Ox and ended up selling off...

Nice pics Rob, That was a fun day to end the season on. Did you ever get any pictures of the boat in the water that afternoon when the weather kicked up? I would venture to say we managed to get some blood on the Sea Ox which was all I was hoping for after getting it finished so late in...

Ive hunted over one before. There made using fine mesh shrimp net, like 3/4" or 1" mesh, you pull tie all the decoys directly to the net. The net is cut into a square or similar shape to your liking and then attach decoys. Its actually very simple to set, an old family friend of ours uses two...

Hey all, Pretty new here and figured I'd introduce myself right quick. I live in eastern N.C. and have grown up hunting and fishing around here. I also currently go to school at East Carolina University. The past several months Ive been rebuilding a 1990 20ft sea ox. Pretty much...
