Build Your Own Shrimp Boat

Don't have big bucks for a shimp boat of your own?   Here's our solution that can net up to 100 pounds per trip with the help of two strikers and one captain.

This Key West 1720 Sportsman has been equipped with a rig made in the back yard from square iron.  Pulleys, doors and a net can be purchased from a marine outfitter.   With one man driving and two working the nets it is far less work and yields more than other recreational shrimping techniques.  Questions?  Contact us for some friendly guidance.

If you'd like to message us at the facebook page with what your boat is we'll see what we can tell you. Not sure what is out there on-line but we can tell you how we did ours.
