I've been wanting to build one of those ever since I saw a duck hunter unloading one just like it a couple winters back. He painted it a really nice camo pattern, and loaded all his decoys, shotgun, and paddled out, pretty simple cool design! Good job!
Just one more cast!

We run a small boat building workshop. You need to swing by some time and check it out. If you want to build a boat, we have the room, tools and expertise you would need to help you complete it. If your interested, PM me and I can give you the address where and when we meet. And to the OP...nice job man!!! Boat building is such a rewarding hobby!

Once I finish my backyard shop, this is gonna be one of the first projects I start. I've been wanting to build a canoe for a long time.

It's really not bad to make on like this, except for the fiberglass. I tried it tonight on a small lake and it tracks straight, feels pretty stable, moves good, doesn't rock to much, but it's a little too affected by the wind. I'm going to install a keel. Maybe that will help.

Thanks Urban Fisher, I'll definately keep you in mind when I decide to do one! I've enjoyed reading your threads on past builds as well.
