I'm not looking at this as some lucrative-get-rich-plan.  I just enjoy having something to do with my time and it so happens that my boat turned out awesome.  I will only build 4-6 Duckhunter's per year.  There is only one thing to be said about my work, Quality!  I guarantee your satisfaction.  I will have roughly 120-150 hours in your boat.  I will try to accommodate requests for modifications if feasible.   I guarantee that if this is the type of boat you are searching for I will go out my way to make sure you have a boat that you will proud of!  I make sure that I do the little things to make the boat stand out and have a more commercial finish.  I don't know how many times I've been asked where I bought the boat or what company makes them.

I have hunted my boat hard since completion in 2003 and have no issues with the way it performed.  The boat is stable as a rock.  I regularly hunted 2 adults with dog and 4-5 dozen decoys comfortably. This is an easy boat to camo, as you can see from the pictures, and is very low profile.

This is a very unique boat that will get many looks and comments at the ramp. The wood construction also provides insulation against frigid water compared to aluminum.  This will be a quality built boat that will last for years with minimal maintenance.

While I use the boat primarily for duck hunting it provides a stable fishing platform as well.  I am located about 45 minutes north of Charlotte, NC if you are interested in seeing my boat first hand/or going for a test run.

I will work with you on any modifications you would like done to the design, for reference I have installed depth finders, relocated gas tanks, added splash wells, etc...

Cost $4500:

• Wood, screws & hardware.  The boat will be constructed of Okuome BS 1088 Marine Ply and clear fir.   Hardware will either be solid brass or stainless and screws are Primeguard Plus.

• 3M 5200 Marine Adhesive (arguably the best adhesive/sealant on the market)

• epoxy, 6oz fiberglass cloth, 7.5oz fiberglass tape (entire exterior will be fiberglassed including fiberglass tape on all the seams; the interior will be coated in epoxy and painted)

• electrical ( 3 conveniently located auxiliary plugs, bilge pump, running lights,  marine tinned wire, all connections either soldered and heat shrinked or with butt connectors and dielectric grease)

• fused rocker panel control for running lights, interior LEDs , driving lights & bilge pump

• battery mounting tray and battery quick-connects

• Rattle Guard Spray-In bedliner on the floor of cockpit and both compartments, which further waterproofs the interior as well as adding traction and protection from gas & oil

• lockable, dry front storage

• custom aluminum transom bracket/plate that serves to strengthen transom, distribute motor weight and allow the motor to be shimmed to the correct height

• 2 part marine foam in the fore and aft compartments to provide emergency floatation

• Graphite coated bottom, super slick!

• Lock, Stock and Barrell flat marine enamel and my custom camo pattern.

Also Included:

• LED Strip Lights  An awesome addition, 7 LED strip lights, five in the main cockpit, one in the rear storage compartment and one in the front storage compartment.  Never have to use a flashlight to see the interior of your boat again!  These lights put out an amazing amount of light and draw very little power. These pictures were made in complete darkness with only the LED's illuminating the interior of the boat.

• Driving/Fog Lights  Great for early morning runs and not having to continuously and unsafely operate a spotlight and an outboard at the same time.

• Cockpit Cover  Hard cover for use if the boat is going to be stored outdoors to keep water/leaves/debris from filling the cockpit. 

• Flapper Boards  These allow you to conceal yourself even further as well as add additional decoy carrying capacity outside of the cockpit.  Just grass with local vegetation to make for a nice flip down blind.  With the flappers down it would be easy to carry a dozen and a half goose floaters on each side.  Once they are in place, just bungee them down. 

• Movable Shell and Drink Holders  Shell and drink holder that attaches to the coaming.  Room for a box of  shells and your favorite coffee mug.  Includes 2

Movable Running seat
