Well I found a good deal on an Airboat, so I'm gonna put my boat up for sale again.
2005 18 ft Aluminum Dixon Seminole Hull built by Alumitech
2005 Ramlin Trailer with Torsion Axles and LED lights
2010 35 Go-Devil Surface drive with Mikuni Carb, Iron Mountain Heads, Marshmellow exhaust and BPS Cam.
Stainless Steel railing with 6 HPS 150 Watt lights . Trolling motor mount with 50# Minn Kota. Aluminum Poling Platform. Bimini Top. Sony 6.5" speakers(4), with 600 watt amp. Iota Converter to charge your trolling motor battery all night, and run your spot lights. All you need to do is add the Generator of your choice.
Front Railing, Poling Platform, and Bimini Top are all easily removed.
Boat and motor are in great shape. Trailer has rust from being used in saltwater, but still has alot of life left.
When you add everything up, it would take $18,000 to replace this boat new.
$10,500

I have been on this boat sticking both frogs and flounder and this boat is it!!! It is the perfect rig to do such activities described. I would buy it in a heart beat but for two kids in college and one on his way to college. However Dale, seeing you are entertaining trades, I will offer you my gheenoe, my polar, several gift cards and I will even throw in my Mother in Law. Should you get an airboat, can I go for a ride?

Bman. Boat runs 28.6 with me(220), Micciman(225), my son(60), and a full Yeti 50qt.
RA...you gonna have to dig up some better trades.
Got an appointment Friday with a shrink to get this Airboat thing out of my head.
Proof this boat can deliver the groceries. Only 40 flounder were harmed in the making of this video.

I can tell you that the shrink will be cheaper than the airboat. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. If you are going to get one, get a mac daddy. Those 13-14' are just a pain to drive in anything but real shallow water.

I think you, my wife, and just about everyone else I talked to about this is right.
Think I'll save up and buy a mini airboat with a Briggs motor, so I can work on it myself.

Well I did just that.
So, the duck/flounder boat is back up for sale.
