ABSTRACT:
A one person hunting blind is described in which an elongated rigid substantially water tight shell includes a bottom wall, longitudinal side walls, bow and stern end walls joining the side walls, and a top deck wall. The walls define an open occupant receiving compartment. The top deck wall includes an opening extending from the stern end toward the bow end, openly communicating with the occupant receiving compartment. The walls are shaped to receive a single occupant in a supine position with the occupant's legs and feet being covered by the top deck wall. In a preferred form, a wheel mounting member is provided on the shell between the bow and stern end walls and at least one wheel is removably mounted to the wheel mounting member and engageable with a ground surface to facilitate moving the shell over the ground surface. Floats are provided in a preferred form of the blind.
