Now I've got to get busy building a blind for her. Not much time left before the season.

Congratulations Olly. You must be like a kid in a candy store.

If you find yourself sitting in it, just to sit in it, don't worry...I would probably do the same.

:thumbsup:

Do you make runs long enough to need that much fuel?

I will, some of the spots I want to get to could be 30-45 min boat ride into the delta. Maybe even longer, that place is huge!

I was just going to say don't pack the extra weight if you don't need to - every pound counts. I have gone as far as 22 miles round trip in my boat on less than my 6 gal tank. It was getting low, but not scary low.

I figure either way I'll be carrying an extra 5 gallon can, so why not save on the space? It might end up being a 12 gallon tank. I will be calling a fab shop here locally to cut and weld me a gas filling hatch on the front kind of like the excel boats have.

Thanks for all the thumbs up guys! It's nice having a real duck boat and not one I slapped together. I should have just spent the money years ago.
