Today while at the carryout I saw a for sale sign listing a Layout Boat, 10 feet long and 50 inches wide for $550.00
That is about one ugly boat:D Can people actually get comfortable in one of those things?:eek:

I figure that he has already seen it and that he is quietly thinking of a response:D
I'm sure that he will come back with something:D

I just now saw it. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I wonder what kind of layout it was? 10' is very small. Mine is almost 13. Maybe an Mighty Layout Boys classic?

Looks like one of those boats that run wacky weed up from S America. What do you use them for?:D


LOL!! NO motors on them. They are a specialized type of duck hunting boat that was invented around Gibraltar, MI in the late 1930's and early 1940's. It is used to hunt "open water", as in not in the marshes. We hunt Lake Erie and the lower Detroit River with them.

Ok, I wish I knew something about computers. I have a video but have NO idea on how to post it. That video would explain it all.

I don't plan on being home then. We have our Ducks Unlimited Dinner in April and we always work there.
