Duckboat

Glen-L Marine's double-ended flat-bottomed duck boat, drawn in 12 and 14 ft versions, with a raised forefoot for sliding over sandbars and a pointed prow for parting the reeds. The Duck Boat Too variant adds provision for a small outboard. Low, easy to camouflage and simple in sheet plywood.

A short, simple build for a hunter. Allow 80 to 150 hours. Real hours from logged builds show below.
