I would appreciate some input on tender boats for layout hunting. I am planing on using my 20' Lund Explorer. This boat has a full- walk through windshield console.Would be interested in how you would transport a layout boat with this rig. Thinking of putting some type of cradle in front of the motor. Any idleaas how to make one and fasten it to.the boat. I guess I'm just looking for ideas on how you layout hunters work with your tenders. Thanks
 
Jim,

I have a boat similar to yours. I run one in front and one in the rear of the console. Decoy bags fit nicely under the rear layout. This method evenly distributes the weight.

Best Regards,

Todd

We Atlantic Tidewater guys like to be comfortable when gunning open bay....AND we like to name our tenders....

Of course, only the first two are "trailerable".

Best of luck in your hunt for the perfect vessel,

What an absolutely gorgeous boat that Commanding Mistress is......classic proof that form an function not only can co-exist but compliment one another as well....
Any idea who built the wheel house on that first boat Steve? Whoever it was understands the concept above...(winky face winky face)
