I haven't posted in a long time on here but have recently been bit by the bug to get back into boats and duck hunting. Here is the Kara boat I've been working on. Should be done with the fiberglass by the end of this weekend!

Getting ready for a trip around Stuttgart Arkansas next week! Any reports of how the hunting has been? Thanks, Blake

Nice looking rig! Did you carve them yourself?

Thanks Bob for the help. I dont know why but for some reason it posted the pics twice and i couldnt get one erased.

I got started on my boat build this fall thought I would share a picture of it. It is a modified hummer, it looks just like a four rivers almost!

Thanks Pat I might give it a go next season. Plus with any luck I'll have the right decoys to match!

Thanks for the help guys! One more question when you say dimension lumber is that clear white pine? Also do you use hand tools or power carvers?

Do you carve out of cork or cedar? Where's the best place to get cedar blocks from?

Those look pretty good! Might have to look you up when I start carving and get some tips. They might be the same birds but we keep a pretty good population of them around here.

No I have not tried the GE decoys yet. I plan on trying to carve my own in the off season. From what I gather the only decoy to there own blocks. They seem like they like to land out in the deeper water also.

No my season closed way to early, today was the last day, I am already looking forward to next season!

There isn't any problems with the current and the layout boats? I hunt the Missouri river and we get a lot of goldeneyes but have trouble decoying them with our puddle duck spread and thought a layout out toward the channel with some longlines would work great!

Has anybody tried this ? I think it would work well just don't know about the current?

Thanks Craig, I like to build one just about like yours. Love the look of that style of boat!

Thanks alot that gives me a starting point! I love the lines and history of these boats. Is the plans from mystic seaport about the same size and design as the bob Fricke style?

This has probably been asked a hundred times but where can I find info on building a sneakbox. I really like the feather edge Fricke style. Any help would be a great help!
