Look at the prodigy boats being built in Atlanta area. They will build to your specs and the few I have seen were built like tanks. If it wasn't for baby #2 I would be in one.

That is the first I have heard of them. Good looking boat for sure.

No doubt. Chad is building some awesome boats... He knows what a duck hunter needs from a boat.

don't buy one! If you do, you are contributing to the decline of duck hunting.

From the few they have listed on the facebook page, they seem lower priced than other custom boats.

The toughest boat out there isn't even on the list. Go devil boats are by far the toughest out there.

Duck fool and nitro where do they have prices? I was combing the fb pages an pics but didn't see anything talking prices.

This is what Chad quoted me a couple weeks ago...1748 starts at 4400 + 500 for the hunt deck. They look good and I intend to have one as soon as I get my Xpress sold

It might not of been on facebook. I'm like a crackhead when it comes to looking for boat deals. I might of been on mmt or somewhere
Senior Member
Ok what kind of price for a boat?
Senior Member
Kinda hard to have the toughest debate. They all use .125 5086 for the hull and 6 longitudinal stringers. All well built boats. I loved my Excel F4.
X2 on the boats Chad is building. They are top notch. As far as price tho, he is about the same as gator trax. He will more than likely be building my next boat.
In case you didn't know
Anything NOT powered with a lawnmower engine than runs all the ducks off. Electric mud boats rule. No sound

Nothing can go where a lightweight canoe and paddle will.

a pirogue will go further as long as you don't fall out of it

I hate you snubbed Godevil and Gatortail. There are plenty of backyard boatbuilders in La that build "tougher" boats that what you listed.
Heck if Phil Robertson endorses it, it's gotta be the best right? Or has he moved on to the highest bidder?
Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

I didn't snub anyone that's why other was a choice. I posted for discussion I just listed name brands to have a basis. I love the way those Prodigy boats look and the closer to home I can find a builder the better for me. I don't make a lot of money so I just want to do this right te first time as much as possible.

I wish someone could have been videoing Evan and I playing in the marsh Sunday. Both of us were in a single Ron Chapman Pirogue in a "pond" that didn't have enough water to float the hull. As we pushed along a bow wake of mud was curling up the sides of the hull. You could see the "snail trail" behind us as we made our way across the mud flat. It will never cease to amaze me what places a good pirogue will allow me to access. When I wear out the three I have now Ill be placing an order for three more that's for sure!! I couldn't imagine having to hunt without them after all these years of seeing and experiencing what they can do with a little effort!
Living in Moncks Corner but looking forward to moving back to the West Coast in 2020 where there are more ducks and less duck hunters!! LOL
