I saw in one of the reports Birddog had a poling platform on his alluminum boat. Does anyone have a place for a custom affordable platforms locally?

Any metal fabricating shop can build you 1. I had mine built at GT Metal in Cairo.

He doesn't use it. He thinks it makes his boat look cool.
It does make a good handle to push the boat off the ramp.

Don't feel bad. It isn't just a pinic table for aluminum boats

The kids like climbing around on it.

TC feels 6' tall when he's on it.

I have no interest in BD's stash, or frisking him for it. Leave me out of that one.

BTW, Eerman, I've decided you're the quiet type that lays back and stirs the pot. I know why you're JT's fan.
