The characteristics of The Duck Boat Company's models have made them the favorite gunning platforms for hunters and guides all around the country. Now Olsen Marine's production process, our quality materials, and reliable components are making it even better.

 

Our most popular model, the TDB 17 SeaClass, is designed to be an incredibly stable platform under the most demanding conditions. Load shifts are hardly noticeable, whether three hunters set decoys on the same side or are stand-up shooting. It is engineered to meet the most rigorous demands of open-water gunning, yet only draws 8-9” of water when fully loaded with hunters and gear offering the chase of sea ducks on the open ocean one day, and mallards and black ducks back in the marshes the next.

 

The massive 10’x4’ cockpit provides ample room for hunters. In addition to a large bow storage area, dual shelving runs the length of the cockpit, giving space for plenty of decoys and excess hunting and boat gear. The cockpit has molded-in non-skid, as does the foredeck and the motor well, giving traction on icy winter days that will not wear off.  It has a molded-in bilge well to keep the water away from hunter's feet, and an oversized 800GPH bilge pump to keep the water out of the boat. All electronics are waterproof to ensure years of worry-free use, including LED cockpit and navigation lights, two 12V sockets, a USB charging port, and a reliable BlueSeas breaker panel.

 

Our original TDB Blind System design that works in conjunction with the TDB hull changed the duck hunting world forever. The sloping decks and blinds are designed to mimic the soft angles found in nature, and combine with the wide open tri-color, camo pattern gel coat makes the boat disappear from both near and far distances. Our blind is made of coated 1000 Denier MilSpec UV-coated Cordura nylon with grassing loops that run down the length. It is held up by aluminum tubing and comes with a rain top the hunter can configure so one can shoot out of the top or from either side. The boat also comes with decoy shelf curtains and a custom Camo motor cover made from the same material.

 

All of these features, combined with our industry leading technology, make the TDB 17 SeaClass the favorite boat for the waterfowling world, at a competitive price. Call or email us with any questions you might have about this legendary boat that is getting better with age!
