Duck
Boats & Sneakboxes
|
|
Of all the markets we design and
build boats for, the water-fowler
presents the toughest customer. He is
looking for a stable, efficient hunting
tool. One that is reliable in rough bays
on a bitter cold day, with performance
like his favorite gun and as responsive
as his favorite dog. We have set out to
meet these demands with strong,
lightweight, and most of all, stable and
seaworthy boats.
We are pleased to offer the largest
selection of quality duck hunting boats
in the world. We use the finest
quality marine materials available to
yield the strongest, lightest and most
durable boats available.
Each size is well suited to its
intended purpose and will perform well
under heavy hunting use. We offer boats
to suit almost every hunting condition
from solo hunting to group parties.
These boats are custom built to each
owner's specifications and needs so
there are many options available as well
as detailing to suit your special
hunting needs.
These boats are intended for heavy
use and are constructed with that in
mind. The plywood is the finest Marine
Mahogany Plywood available and is
combined with our “Stitch and Glue”
wood/epoxy construction to yield a
clearly superior boat. The hardware and
fastenings are marine grade of either
bronze or stainless steel. For more
information on “Devlin Duck Boats”, as
well as other brands, go to Eric
Patterson's
Duck Boat Building Forum. Ask others
about the Devlin boats they have built
and hunted from. This is a tremendous
resource for duck hunting enthusiasts
and I applaud Eric’s fine website.

Type of Hunting:
T : Transport
LB : Low Blind
HB : High Blind
LT(# of people) : Layout
SCL(# of people) : Scull
Height Rating : 1 being lowest, 10 highest. Takes
into account seating height and freeboard of hull above the waterline.
Height : Floorboards to deck at centerline height measurement.
NF means boat does not have floorboards so measurement is from the bottom
of the boat.
|
Seaworthiness Factors:
CS : Close to shore
OW : Open Water
Scale: 1 - calm, 10 - gale conditions

Materials List
|
|
Notes:
- This list will complete the vessel to the state of rough
construction work and is intended to be an approximate list.
- All plywood noted is 48 x 96 unless otherwise specified.
- * CMGS = coamings, DB = Deck Beams.
- 6mm = ¼ thickness; 9mm = 3/8 thickness; 12mm = ½
thickness; 18mm = ¾ thickness
- O.B.E. = Our best
estimate of construction materials costs. You will see that this price is
roughly 1/3 the price of the boat without power.

Definition of Terms
|
|
Hrdwd |
Hardwood such as Honduras or African mahogany or equivalent.
|
|
Fir/Spruce |
Softwood compatible for boat building with good gluing and bending
characteristics, fir or equivalent. |
|
Wood Notes |
All wood is to be of moisture content of 12% or less and should be
carefully inspected for faults and flaws (which should be avoided at
all times) |
|
Plywood |
British Standard #1088 marine plywood of Occume or equivalent
species construction. |
|
6MM -- ¼ thickness |
9 MM -- 3/8 thickness |
12MM -- ½ thickness |
18MM -- ¾ thickness |
|
Fiberglass cloth |
Six ounce fiberglass cloth (epoxy compatible) of 50 or 60
width suitable for sheathing the exterior of the boat, and as a
finishing cloth tape over Biaxial tape structural interior seams.
|
|
Biaxial Cloth Tape |
Twelve ounce knit fiberglass cloth of double bias construction, cut
into rolls of 4 width and 6 width. For use in making structural
fillets of major hull seams and structural bulkheads. Laminated over
Wood/Flour epoxy fillets wet on wet in narrowestwidest layered
sequence. |
|
Epoxy Resin |
Marine grade epoxy resin of a type compatible with the construction
of Stitch and Glue constructed vessels. Assumes proper mixed ratios
of resin and hardener products as provided by the epoxy manufacturer.
|
|
Wood Flour |
Cellulose product used alone or in combination with Cabosil as a
filling and thickening agent for mixed epoxy resin. |
|
Cabosil |
An additive to use to thicken mixed epoxy resin made from fumed
siliceous, can be used alone or in combinations with wood flour to
yield thixotropic (non-sagging) fillets and fillers. When used alone
results in a high-density filler medium that may be very hard to sand.
|
|
SS. SMS |
Stainless Steel sheet metal screws with a variety of head
configurations such as Flat Head (FH) or Pan Head (PH) and with
slotted, Phillips, or Robertson (Square Drive) heads. In all cases
Bronze may be substituted in any case for Stainless Steel, but by no
means use brass for any marine applications. |
|
Polyurethane Caulk |
A caulking material usually dispensed out of a caulking gun type
tube. This caulking material is suitable for bedding and structurally
fastening of marine type hardware and fitting to a Stitch and Glue
constructed vessel Such as 3M #5200, or Sikaflex 241 caulk. |
|
Scarfing |
A method of joining sheets of Marine Plywood into longer sheets, use
1-8 scarf ratio minimum. |
|
O.C. |
On center spacing of fastenings or measurements. |
|
I.L.S. |
Interior Lamination Schedule, (2) layers of Biaxial tapes in 4-6
widths with staggered layers over Wood Flour/Epoxy Fillet, applied wet
on wet. This is used on longer boats, such as the Cackler, Snow Goose,
Honker and Scaup |
|
E.L.S. |
Exterior Lamination Schedule, a single layer of 6 ounce fiberglass
cloth sheathing over all exterior surfaces of hull and deck, making
sure to overlap whenever practical. All exterior joints and seams must
have a minimum of (2) layers of fiberglass over them.
Note : Hull exterior and decks sheathed with (1) layer
minimum 6 ounce fiberglass cloth and epoxy resin reinforced with
double layers on all seams and edges. |
|
W.E.S.T. Construction |
Wood construction method that stands for
(Wood-Epoxy-Sealing-Technique) and allows that all wood used in the
structure of the boat be sealed and encapsulated in epoxy resin. Epoxy
Resin is also used in the structural gluing of all surfaces of the
vessel. It is necessary to cover over the epoxy resin with multiple
layers of opaque paints to provide Ultra-Violet protection for the
cured epoxy surfaces. |
|
Cold Molding |
Additional layers of plywood laminated over hull core plywood to
build up to designed ultimate skin thickness. Most often ¼
or 6 mm plywood is used for this purpose. Used only as an option on
Snow Goose and Honker designs. |
|
Wire Stitches (Sutures) |
Wire used to stitch the hull panels of the boat together until the
joints can be bonded with epoxy resin and fiberglass cloth
reinforcement. The wires simply serve a function of clamping together
parts until the glue sets and then are pulled completely out of
the structure. 16 gauge galvanized electric fence wire is the most
economical type of wire to use and is available from feed stores and
hardware stores almost anywhere. |
|
Half Oval |
A brass or stainless steel half oval rod of metal usually available
from marine stores or a metal outlet. Attaches to the hull with #8
SS.SMS on about 8 inches O.C.. Used for chafe and abrasion protection
on the bottom of keels and bilge keels. Bed into place over
polyurethane caulk. |
|
Polyurethane Foam |
2-part pour in place foam used to add positive floatation to smaller
boats. |
