PHOTOS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
Most of our customers are first-time builders,
and many make the decision to give it a try after seeing the completed boats of
others. All of the photos below were submitted by proud owners of a new
boat...send us a shot of yours and we'll add it to the list!

A few shots of what we do when
we're not building boats...
Me and old Cajun Bob got together with some
friends
for a day of bustin' up some clay. It goes
without saying that we have a good time whenever we get out like
this, that is, until we have to carry old Bob out to the truck after he hits
the Jack too hard!
Do like us, and have fun with whatever you do,

From Henry of
Gatorboats.com;
These photos are of my nephew, he recently decided he wanted to build a boat
to use on our "testing grounds" at the family farm. He wanted to
design the boat himself, and did, without using any of our plans or
assistance. My father helped him with the power tools, as he did with
me at that age, but otherwise let him do all of the work. I happened
by with a gallon of epoxy that afternoon and laid some tape and helped
finish the seat. It reminded me why I have remained involved with
wooden boats over the years.
His design works well, it's very stable for him and he loves it. It is
a youth boat, easy to handle in and out of water. I see this as an
example of how easy it is to pick up some tools and build a boat, and how
forgiving the process is if you are off a little here or there in your
construction. If a thirteen year old can do it from scratch, anyone
can do it with a complete set of dimensioned plans!
