these guys obviously don't know what they are talking about... wareagle duck boats are the sweetest boat money can buy, and unfortunatley that's exactly the case... they are a little on the spendy side... also, wareagle will build a boat any way you want it and they will set it up for a mud motor if you choose, but if you want to fish out of it i would think twice about a mud motor..it will take up all of your room in your boat and a 16' boat really isn't that big.. it's tough to get a boat to duck hunt and fish... you almost really need two boats or else it won't be a good duck boat or a good fishing boat. and if you're going to buy a wareagle it would be a shame to not have it be great at something!! maybe buy a cheap jon boat and a cheap lund style boat... it would cost about the same a a 16' wareagle.. they are not cheap.

good luck
