    The Aluminum Pirogue is aproximately 11ft long with 26" bottom, it has 12" sides. Unfortunately it has no rake, the bow and stern are square and the sides have no flare. Originally it had a sealed box for floatation, but I cut it out and added the wood gunnel to try to extend the width. I...

    How to increase the rocker in an U J Pirogue Kit?

    Iin the bottom right youtube video he does mention that the side heght midships is @ 12" and the bow and stern side height is @ 14". He also claims that it will hold in excess of 500lbs. The video describes the pirogue alot more than his website does.

    New Cajun here!

    Thanks for the warm welcome. My initial plans for the pirouge was for transportation to and from our boat hide. We normally hide a pirouge close to the bind and our godevil or mudboat about 100-200 yards away. Our ducks seem to be real educated by the time they end up my way. I do like...
