| duck boat new look
Well gave the duck boat a new paint job, removed the old rotten wood seats, and replaced with HARDYBOARD. At LOWES $ 9.49 for a 4 x 5 sheet. Now no more rotten seats, cheaper than plexie glass, and starboard, and the platic board, like the trex for decks.

What kind of jack plate do you have hanging on the transom? What size OB are you running?
Just curious.....

Now all you have to do is use it more than once a year.
You hunting out of flower beds? Pretty design.
Mike, he's running a 9.9 hp, don't know what kind it is. Have you picked up your new ride yet? I picked up a used 16' with a 25hp motor on it. Trying to decide what to do with my 12'er.

I'm sure your 12' will have some uses in some "not friendly launch areas"...

 Yeh we have launched in some interesting areas. Launch ramps are over rated.
Did you see it's $10 to launch down there now!? They paint the bathrooms and double the fees. The yearly looks like the way to go $75 up from $50.
Boat looks good! Almost went that way, welded?

I read that Chuam has a new boat ride too?? You have a little BD armada going on!

We're taking over the world!
These guys are married with YOUNG chillens. Curious to see how much they get out this year.
Hope the back waters are narrower this year. keeps the bigger boats out.
Just got back from the bow shop. Man, it's got me thinking about selling the small boat, motor and trailer just to get one of those fancier bows they've got out.
