She thinks I'm nutz!
I have been having a ruff time sleeping because of the few design conundrums like tge dog door, real door and shooting flap... The three most important things other than staying afloat lol You need to look into a garage style door system for your shooting windows. Run a set of track on each side of the frame (2 windows split in the middle). Extend the track past the the blind twards the water 8 inches longer that the hight of the window. Attach a spring to the bottom of the window which will be attached to a post you have driven in the water. This will allow the door to "Spring open. Use two pull lock at the top with a rope tying the two together. . When you pull the locks the door will slide down the track quit fast with the force from the spring. This system works great and you never have to worry about guys jumping early. I need light weight? and cheap but not crap cheap.. That's really smart tho, I gotta look into that

Build it out of aluminum studs and there is no wieght problem. Cheap you might have 50 bucks in the whole system. We have put this system on numnerous blinds and its great. Give me a shout if you would like its hard to explain over text.

The only bad thing is the post I have to have in front of the blind, that makes relocating the bling alot of work/noise
