ABSTRACT:
A lumber work boat provided with an operating arm assembly at a bow portion of the boat for gathering up or moving lumber floating on the water. The boat has a recess to be opened frontwardly of the bow so that the operating arm assembly may be received within the recess, the assembly being driven by a drive mechanism disposed within the hull of the boat to transmit operating force to the operating arm assembly. The arrangement permits the entire work device to be positioned at a level lower than the upper deck, thereby providing a small type hull and enhancing mobility, while the operating arm assembly is protected since it is received in the recess when not in use, and the drive mechanism is not exposed to sea water or open air since it is encased within the hull.
