He would never make a sale to a Louisiana duck hunter if he wore a life
jacket. Go devil boats and super go devil boats are very popular for duck
hunting. The motor on theses things can be anything from a lawnmower engine
to a Subaru engine. They make some models with double props and two
engines.

They are not designed to go 10 miles down a deep bayou but to access swamps
and areas with heavy Lilly pads. Most of the areas are 1 to 4 foot deep.
There are deeper slues and ponds but most areas theses boats operate is less
ten 4 foot.

Other boats used to go through similar areas is a mud boat. The car engine
is mounted in the center of the boat with a prop shaft that goes out the
bottom of the boat.
