That is a great looking boat, it is exactly what I want my boat to be when it grows up

Great looking boat! I am a big fan of uncluttered hulls. Looks tough too!

I like it. Open hull for sure. If you hunt out of that rig, what type of blind do you use? The hydroturf is good, I have done just my bow deck for now, it is expensive but eventually will do the full floor. Do you ever incorporate a gunwale track/channel for some accessories? Would this be feasible? Can you make me a say, .100, "speed hull"? Does the hull have flotation? Thank you for sharing!

Bad ass rig man! Congrats. I know who's building my next boat....

wete you get this boat made at

Henderson, La

nice boat Owen....


part of me wants to get a bateau and sell the skiff

Owen you gonna leave it how it is or add lights, etc.?

Who rigged it out? Looks Damn Good!

I did everything

How long is the front deck on this boat?


Sent using my bag phone

Hmmmmm.... That looks very similar to someone else's old boat....

Somewhere around 64" I believe.

That's good sized. Would be easy to bowfish two guys from there.

Yea for sure

what kind of muffler is that

Owen,
Do you have any idea on the weight of your boat(motorless)?

Its a complete guess, but 650 lbs??? I could be way off though.

Just the material for the boat pencils out to around 435 lbs. Add weight for bracing, welds etc and I'd say you're a little heavy. Granted this is give or take a little based on exact dimensions of the material. I also figured for 24" sides.


Sent using my bag phone

With 6 2x2 longitudinal braces and 3 cross braces the material weight for that hull w 24" sides is 500 lbs including the deck.

By far me of the nicest boats on here to me

I think your a little on the light side

-cross braces aren't the same material as the long braces.
-do you know the transom bracing material?
-including the 3/16ths catwalks?
-the gunnel material before the catwalks are added?
-the material used to brace the front deck?
-including the bulkhead for the dry storage?
-the half pipe for the front "bumper" of the boat?

I'm guessing more like 575

Not that you really care how much it weighs...but anyone who wanted to know the weight of their hull could probably take it to a weigh station, weigh it, and then subtract the advertised weight of the motor and trailer, etc.

Right^^

But I couldn't take Owens boat to a weigh station while I was at my desk in Minnesota.

I was thinking the same thing as I did the math though. 

Merely an idea.

Owen, how do you like the skeg. Noticed its shaved down. Mine is still origional. Thats the only complaint I have with my 36PD is the vegatation get hung on it if I stop. That looks like it would just knife through it.

Owen what mods do you have on the motor and who did them for you?

IM heads
Hoyts cam
Carb
Exhaust

I did them myself.

Very nice bateaux , question--- Is bro breaux any relation to Roy Breaux of Breaux's Baycraft from the old days?

What size gutters are on your boat?

Idk, like 3" or so.

I'll measure when I get home. I believe it's 19.5

4400-4500 or so

Well looked all the way to here, and couldnt find your other review.. mind bumping it?
