bshaw Member Posts: 4 Registered: Jan 2010	posted 02-03-2010 02:38 PM hi guys i am new to the sight and this year was my first time duck hunting, and i have to say i fell in love with it. i have been doing a lot of reading about the layout boats and was wondering how good they do in rough water because i was thinking about building one for hunting in the bays. i noticed that most of the ones like on hybridduckboats.com were kinda small, should i make mine larger to handle the rough water better?

Blindhog Member Posts: 150 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 02-05-2010 03:32 PM I have a hybrid square nose built to hybridduckboats.com specs by Rustybeaver. It is quite stable. Also have a bud who built one about 1 foot longer than spec recently. So the designs are customizable I guess. They are very useful and versatile boats. Will be using mine on small water to do some fishing. IP: Logged

The reason it is a "hybrid" is because it IS NOT a layout boat....and SHOULD NOT be used in big water...It is a small water layout/coffin blind "hybrid" If you are really going to be a bluebill shooter...go with a true layout boat such as a Mighty layout boys or some other "pumpkinseed" type with splash sheild.
