MOmarsh is well known for the comfort, quality and hideability of their marsh boats and the blinds that go with them. Continuing the tradition they have developed a 4-man pit blind for 2009 that has some big advantages over other pit blinds on the market! The biggest drawbacks to many pit blinds is that they are bulky to transport, deteriorate and are hard to hide from above. MOmarsh has addressed those details!
The Fatboy PB is nestable for shipping. This is a big advantage over most other pits as the parts can be stacked unassembled and shipped LTL to anywhere in the country. Furthermore, the pit blind will pit into the bed of a pickup truck, so no trailer is needed to transport them to the hunting location. Once there, the blind can be assembled on site and put into the ground.
The PB is made to use one of two ways, either 2 parts can be bolted together and the blind can be buried in zero-grade fashion or 1 part can be buried and a 20" topper is attached to it for areas where zero grade is not needed, but a dry hole in the ground is! Our unique and highly effective cover system for the holes is highly effective and very easy to see and shoot out of. In that regard, we have perfected what is the biggest drawback to many pit blinds!
Furthermore, the Fatboy PB complies with conservation easement restrictions that dictate that a blind be removable. Concrete blinds have become unallowable on most WRP and CP tracts in recent years. Fiberglass doesn't rust or crack like other blinds and tends to be quieter and does not sweat much!

Our unique pit blind parts can be used in zero grade application as shown above and or as a half pit with a topper as shown below. The half pit is great and saves you money if you dont have to have the top level with the ground. It is what we do in our wetland tract where we have grasses growing around the blinds.

Backfilling around half pit after levling and anchoring it to the ground with trailer anchors, chain and boomers in the picture above.

Above is a closer picture of the anchoring system. Eyebolt and boomer. Chain and trailer anchor are under the dirt.

This is a pic after the topper has been built. It is 17" tall and there is a 24 inch gap running down the length of it. We will install short doors prior to the season. You could also break up the hole with grass bundles. I like this topper because we can still shoot both ways.

This picture shows looking down into the blind through the gap in the topper. The wood has been covered with tarpaper and wire for attaching grass.
