Thanks for the link...it's all very clear now.

That's what I was trying to figure out...not how it would look cosmetically but where would the use of the spruce have the most benefit.

I made a prototype kayak paddle using a closet rod and luan plywood that worked great so now I want to build a nice one. I have some very, very nice sitka spruce that I was going to use to try and build a mandolin but I've had it for about 8 years so I doubt that plan will ever take shape. I...

Well, he caught more and bigger fish than I did and I would rather catch more and bigger fish than have the faster boat any day.

So you still have the anchor tied down to some other cleat in the boat you just direct the anchor line with the trolley?

How does the anchor line attach to the trolley?

You guys were right! After about 100 yds he called uncle after I was about 25 yds ahead of him. He couldn't believe how well my homemade UJ pirogue cut through the water. Heart stopper....on the way home I nearly lost the boat off the back of my truck. The boat was fine but it broke a blade...

I wanted to do this as well but one thing I could figure out is how to keep the trolley positioned where you want it. I'm assuming that is what the 2 clam cleats are for?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The paint can sounds like a good idea! :lol: If he still take the lead I'll get one of my lures with lots of treble hooks and snag him for ride. I'll let you know what happens....

I'm going fishing with a friend in my UJ pirogue on Wednesday and he's giving me hell about how he will have caught 2 fish before I even make it to the fishing spot. In other words, he thinks my pirogue is going to be slow. He uses a Malibu Kayaks Mini X (about 9ft I think). How do these...

When screwing these down do y'all dip the screw in some silicon or something or just put it in dry? I wanted to put some of these in as well and didn't know if I should try to waterproof the screw hole or not.

What's a W T-V?

Bass. I caught a 3lb and a dink last night. It's been really hard to catch anything out there for about 3 weeks now and the 3lb was the best thing I've caught in a while.

Bald Cypress, is this better? :D 4th time out on the boat tonight and I push off the bottom in some shallow water and brought up a big pile of stinky mud on the paddle. I'm really liking the bright inside and am glad I used a bright color. This picture was taken at 8:52pm with my cell phone I...

IT FLOATS!!!! I took the boat out for a little bit last night and it was awesome. I think I should have put a keel strip on it but other than that it did great. I think my tracking issues will be negligible once I get a kayak paddle.

Yes, it's the same. I was already thinking about painting some grip on the bottom. First, I want to see how slippery it is when wet.

Some pictures with a real camera...

I'M DONE!!!!! Well, I have to finish the seats but the boat is done! I'll take a picture with a real camera tomorrow since all of the ones I've posted have been from my cell phone. As you can see, it doesn't handle the white interior very well. I want to thank everyone for all of the help...

Yea, I would have gotten another color but this was 60% off at a going out of business sale at my local Boater's World. The off white was the only one they had left. 99% of the time I start fishing around 7pm so it shouldn't be a problem at all. If it is, I'll paint it.
