    Default Poling Platform Build from yesterday

    Hung out with PT yesterday afternoon and helped him knock this out for a sweet little 14ft jon boat
    Quick detach mounts at the bases for easy removal
    My definition of "helped" is telling him what a fine job he is doing and handing him tools

    That's badass, I need one for my boat one day. Is it made to be removable?

    Great looking platform but you better have some weight up front while poling.

    Badass, but thats kind of intense for a 14' jonny with a 25. Poling platform nicer than the boat

    What does something along these lines cost? Currently rebuilding a 15 high tide that I've thought about putting one on.

    Ive got one that ive got to retrofit to my war eagle. I had a platform on my old godevil boat. Loved it. Great vantage point to scout ducks from and awesome to grab ahold of when you got to hang it over the side of the boat to get rid of those hot wings and beer from the night before

    500.00 and up...I hate using the quick mounts because it seams gimmicky but others love it. Run your battery or fuel up front and it will pole just fine with one person.
