Now the other fun starts. Using it.Paint job done. I cant seem to get the other pics to load to my email. As soon as they do I'll post em up.
Plan is to let the paint dry better and get it in the water Monday. I got my fingers crossed that it will float !
I live in Southern Illinois,and hunt here in Missouri, Arkansas,Tennessee . Kentucky, and Indiana alt least a few times every year. I couldnt wait till today so I took the boat out to the lake,well whats left of the lake ,and she worked great ! It dont track as well as I would have liked but that may have been due to my paddling and not the boat. The adjustable seat is a great addition so I can move it back and fourth for balance . Thats gonna be great with a decoy bag . No bee the seat is not attached to the rail it just slides along it. My camo is pretty simple. I start out with the tan and paint the whole thing,then I go back whit my homemade stencil which is a hand full of weeds held together between two 1x2's . I then spray green and brown over the stencil here and there till its all covered.
Thanks I believe it cost me around $150 for all materials. I'm building another one right now. The resin and glass cost alot more than the wood does
