Bankes Chesapeake Fabric Blind Ideas?

Hello,
I just picked up a 1997 Bankes Chesapeake Duck Boat. Man am I excited to hunt from it! Looking for any fabric blind ideas you guys may have. Thanks in advance!
 
Have you considered rigging it like a sneakboat. I did this with an old Herters duck and goose pond boat. That hull is down on Lake Okeechobee now-still being hunted out of.
 
I mainly hunt marshes and riverbanks. I am introducing my 12 year old son into waterfowling this year and want a good set up that he can be sitting up to shoot and stand. I have a couple ideas but like to hear others. I have a blind that the boat came with but want to get away from the high flat sided open top type blind. I will probably build and install a folding sided blind made from 1/2" EMT, plastic chicken wire, fabric and fast grass. I like the looks of the new Bankes Blinds with the grassing loops also. I just got the boat and have lots of time till September.
