I thought the same since the boat has crab pots in it. But, I would want to stack my pots on a flat surface instead so I'm not convinced. -Ryan

Works great in bama for floating the creek for squirrels. That makes sense. I mostly boat in salt marsh creeks with thousands of acres of reeds. Getting out of the boat onto dry land is difficult. Having a built in gangway is a really good idea. I have never seen a boat with this before but it makes a lot of sense. -Ryan
