If you build it........
Gator Wooden Boat Plans
I sure wish I could locate one of these. Took this pic at Hurricane last year or year before. Anyone have one you'd like to get rid of or someone can make one? I'm not looking to spend a fortune, but I'm reasonable.

A buddy of mine in Batesville named Chris Downs builds pirogues and other style boats. The name of his company is Pintail Duck Boats. Google him and you'll find his info. I think he said sportsmans warehouse is going to carry some of his boats. I bought the 1st one he ever made- talked him into making it for me.
If that's not something you're looking for, Google Paw Paw's pirogues. They have a high rocker on them for maneuverability and they're fiberglass. They are Cadillacs, is what they are. I've owned all sorts of canoes and pirogues and small crafts, but never one of theirs. Just never could pull the trigger on one, money wise, but they are worth it, from what I hear from owners.

I camped at Water Valley Landing March '05 or '06. A few of those short boats were in the campground. I asked, some guy in Water Valley would cut your old boat to that size and make it the way you want it, starting at $200. One boat was a $500 model.
Looks like a deathtrap to me. But what do I know.
Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
The two loudest sounds are a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and one that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
If you rob Peter to pay Paul, you can generally count on Paul's vote.
A guy named Ed Canada made cut down boats in Oxford . He may have retired by now . These were in big demand in the 90's . I think polar craft stamped some out and sold them for you to weld . Even those were 300.00 then . Tri -county marine also sold Kirkland boats which was fiberglass and made in Charleston . The plant closed several years back .
