Drake Ghillie Boat Blind with No-Shadow Dual Action Top When building the perfect blind in a confined space such as a boat, there is no room for error and zero forgiveness for awkward design. Our Spring-Loaded Auto-Locking legs go past vertical and invert to a bracket where it is held firmly in place by the spring tension and gravity, forcing the leg into a locked position. When you lift the blind, which can be done with one hand, the springs are engaged and the legs automatically lock back. No need for additional stabilizer bars to take up valuable space in the boat. Our top gives full coverage over the interior of the blind no matter the width of the boat. Fabric hangs down, covering a gap between the top and the front wall. The fabric can be tied back to create a clean gap to look through, if desired. There are brush straps that allow you to hang raffia to break up the gap, giving it a more natural look and eliminating the shadow a gap may cause. This top works just like 4-Man Blind. When you throw the top back, you throw the top behind you, never losing sight of the ducks. You can also collapse the blind, use our new Ghillie Seat, sit in the floor of the boat, engage the top, creating a much lower profile. This allows the user to simply measure the front and rear width and the length of the blind, lay the parts on the ground, slide the tubing to that dimension and insert a pin in the nearest hole. This also allows you to take the blind off a 14' boat and put it on a 17' boat with ease. The top competitor blinds can take up to 8 hours to install, with lots of drilling and tightening of bolts, making it custom to each boat. Another advantage is when it comes to mud motors. The tiller handle sticks into the back end of the boat and often comes in contact with the blind, causing damage to it, the motor and the boat operator's hand.
