I have a 12 ft crawdad plastic johnboat just sitting around the house. I want to make it into a duck boat for me in like one or two others. Any ideas of what I should get for the boat?

Some good advice there. The only advice I'd take with a grain of salt is the part about running long distances with a 4-6hp outboard. This boat was not designed for big water. Put three people in it and I wouldn't put it on any body of water larger than about an acre.adustydawg2 said:Build some kind of low profile blind on it. My friend and I sit on the floor with a camo net and burlap cloth on a low profile bind like the quickset models. Get a real good trolling motor, or if you plan on some distance runs a good 4 to 6 hp outboard. Remember this ain't no bass boat. It will be a slow ride. I attach anchors; old window sash weights to hold position or if up against a brushy shoreline I use some big jumper cable style clips and camo cord to help hold me in place. Hook them up to some decent size limbs and you are good to go. Good luck. :welcome:
