Been getting my boat ready she is Brandy New, never seen water or hunted, it was a Barn Find in South Jersey.... all I need to do is grass her in and next week should be the maiden hunt.... this is the second sneakbox I have ever owned the first was 30 years ago it was a Rays Plastics/Higbee, I got out of duck hunting back then when we were all made to shoot steel shot, so I sold everything I had as a package, even the Remington Special Purpose went lol (my duck and goose calls were accidentally left in the boat that I never got back) bought a Honda four wheeler from the procedes, this one is exactly like my first with a few upgrades, I need to touch up some stuff with the rattle can to meet my specifications lol she should really run good, I can't wait, got decoys to rig etc hope to hunt bunches over the next month....

Sweet vessel - best of luck with her!

Who built it? Is it a Higbee as well? Looks like a 12-footer LOA ?

All the best,

IDK who built it, there were no hull numbers or anything, it appears like a later model Higbee (but can't swear to it) where the wooden floor was not installed (they rotted over time anyway) for an all Fiberglass floor, may be a Rays??.... I jumped through lots of hoops to get it registered since it has never been registered or on the water... It is just under 12ft, they registered it at 12ft. that's what the Marine Trooper put it as when I had to take it there for inspection, since there were no identifying numbers...
