checked out his website, umm, flint, does he know you're black?FlintRiverFowler wrote:Well guys for any who are interested in this project I've just spoken with the builder of this boat. His name is Gordy Oates and he is the owner of duckmaster calls in lonoke Arkansas. Great guy and he gave me a ton of info on the boat
It was a company that they tried to start up building these things in the early 90s. Tons of equipment was bought, and only three of these were made. Gordy has one. His buddy has one and I have one. Apparently something went wrong with his financial backing and the project got put on hold and was never restarted. He said the front half of the outside hull is Kevlar and could take a bullet. They were built to be light weight and sturdy for Arkansas timber. The only wood was the floor. He suggested that I get a piece of fiberglass sheeting made instead of putting wood back down on the floor. I'm not sure I can afford that though. The boat being this old and just now having the floor replaced I think I'm ok with going back to wood. He also had a bunch of snap on tops that go over the blind made up and he's gona send me a couple of those. I thought it was pretty cool of him. His website is http://Www.arkansasduckmaster.com check him out he's a good guy who has done me a big favor.

That would be nice. I drank a beer out by the fence with my neighbor earlier and was absolutely drenched in sweat half way through. It's over 90% humidity.
