The day I brought it home from Roy's...naked fiberglass..


Inside view from the motor well


From front to back




First coat of Lou's FME Deadgrass Brown


Camo'd amatuer style with FME Deadgrass Green


Flaps on, attached with piano hinges, and hardware on almost ready to hunt, don't mind the retriever in the photo


Grassed up for the season




Thanks for looking Dave....Finally got the hang of this picture thing...big thanks to Dave Diefenderfer for the suggestions at Tuckerton..thanks also to Jodie Hillman who tried to help but my images were too large to attach and I am pretty computer illiterate...

I love my Estuary but I have my oldest boy that will be ready to hunt in a couple of years and that looks like the boat I am going to get.
 
Thanks Lou, I just wasn't sure how I was going to grass so that is why I went with the camo paint job otherwise I would have just done the brown and then the grass...the paint was great to work with and I am really happy how it turned out..

Charlie...sometimes you can't help it with a boat that wants to run... it's just like a horse it if it wants to go it's kind of hard to hold it back. It's tough going slow in the morning cause at quarter throttle it wants to get on plane..so the fun part is after the hunt on the way in you can let it rip..the performance is amazing at how it feels on the water... no bounce or slap...like it's glued to the surface..that is the only way I can describe it...Dave
 
Looks great Dave!!! Ofcourse I can see it from my bedroom window but the pics are nice too.................................Later, Kevin
 
I really like the looks of these boats! You should kill some ducks out of that for sure.
