Modern dredging equipment may be divided into four main classes. The grab dredge is used where the amount of excavation is relatively small. It consists of one or more grab buckets, operated by cranes mounted on a vessel or barge or sometimes on the shore. Each bucket has jaws that are hinged together.
This boat is a 1976 18 ft. Landau ALL WELDED jon boat. It is 76 inches at the top and 58 inches at the bottom. It is very stable in all water conditions and the extra wide bottom drafts very little water so you can get in the shallows where the ducks want to be. It has a removable boat seat with a swivel chair. The wide open floor plan is perfect for hunting or fishing.
Typical board sizes for flat water are 10' - 12' feet long, 30-36 wide and 4-6 thick. If you want to race or travel long distances (more than 8-10 miles), a 12-14 foot paddle board would be a better choice.
