Hybrid Duck Boat
We are about to build a couple of these little boats.
anybody built one or hunted for one?
I will be building me a 2.5 HP long tail with a 2:1 gear reduction. going to try to built it to weigh in less than 45lbs.

Re: Hybrid Duck Boat
I got a mind for a 10' boat, and building a little light weight gear reduction longtail (4'-5' shaft)
I gotta take my dog so an 8' boat will be tough.
I've built several in the past.
Champ, did you ever hunt out of it ?

Re: Hybrid Duck Boat
I built one of the "NL" models year before last. Which model are you going with?

Re: Hybrid Duck Boat
Built a 8' one and two people can ride in it. I'm not sure you will get in under 45 lbs though unless you make it out of 1/2" plywood or less. My bottom and sides was 5/8" with ribs glassed in in the floors for rigidity. They are fun to build for sure. Be sure to roll on extra coats of epoxy on the bottom to protect the glass. I glassed the entire outside of mine. It's for sale if you would just rather buy mine.
