Well I finally finished a project that completes the conversion of the Wildthing, into it's full duck hunting potential.
I pretty much exclusively hunt the Nisqually flats. I use my big boat as a mothership for the landing craft. This year we purchased two of the new rotomolded marshrats so now I had to figure out how to transport three marshrats to the hunting spot.
Here are some pictures of the cradle that I built and how we convert the big boat into duck huniting mode.
For those who use thier boat for multipurpuse I thought this might give you some ideas.
enjoy
Here is the cradle with just one (the heavy fiberglass one goes in first) I pull it up over the side
I attached it with bolts under the railing so it is not going anywhere.
Then I tilt the first one on it's side
Then put in the bracket on both side that will hold the next two
With two loaded up
Now with the third loaded on
Ready for the duck killing adventure to begin. We are now ready to move about Puget Sound.
Hope it inspired some ideas, enjoy!
