About The West Mersea Duck Punt

Some links to the (successfully built) duck punt community to help the uninitiated to understand why this is such cool boat:

  1. Dylan Winter - taking his one-week-to-build duck punt from Wells to Blakeney on the north Norfolk coast. Took the darned thing into open sea!! The duck punt has around 1ft/300mm of freeboard, and Dylan's version has no flotation tanks. The cajones of this guy defies belief!!! As always with Dylan, exquisite photography and insightful commentary. Can't stop watching this one... 
  2. I Love My Punt - cool video of the West Mersea gang's punts being enjoyed, backed by a rather fine Ed Shearan sound track
Beyond that, just go to You Tube and search for 'Duck Punt' - you'll quickly get the picture. Promise.
