My perfect duck boat is a shovel. So I can dig into a dry corn field to shoot proper mallards far from SC. The idea of shooting ducks around water in no way compares, to me.
I agree that the high tide caps are a horrible design
My current one is a 1648 War Eagle with the duck bill, 6 inch Jack plate and a 60hp 4 stroke Mercury tiller. It’s perfect for what I use it for, a comparable sized Havoc or Edge would be great too. It goes from Sparkleberry to the coast and everywhere in between. There are a few lakes off the river I can’t get into with it and I’ll carry my 1436 with a 25hp.
An 1860 aluminum boat with a 90hp or 115hp tiller. Rear bench seat, high front deck with storage, gun box down the starboard side, and a pirogue rack on the port side. Having a rear deck lid would be nice but only if I can fit a 12gal tank under it. Hydraulic jackplate on the back and a pair of 6ft power poles as well. Duck bill on the front with lights mounted in cages underneath. Outfit it with shark eye bow lights, and the stern light mounted on top of the outboard motor. A pad hull would be really nice but not absolutely necessary as long as there’s a decent keel. Something in the 14 degree range would be as flat as I’d like to go.
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
Open hull 1860 with a tiller. My boat is now set up for fishing but, I have had tons decoys in this thing and never had an issue hunting open water.

I am not sure it survived the fire out at Longwood when he stored all his duck stuff there after moving from Dewees to Edisto. I will find out...
I've been looking at the war eagle 754LDSV i'v always liked the side console, I feel like it could function for duck, deer, and turkey and also be taken out with the wife and dogs to drink beer and swim
