A floating duck blind for use in waterfowl hunting nature photography and/or bird watching. A framed platform portion encased in closed cell polyurethane and a polyuria outer coating for buoyancy and durability includes several vertical openings that allow the platform to be staked into a position in the water. A metal wire mesh enclosure enables camouflaging means to be affixed to hide the platform and the occupants. A dog box portion communicates from the enclosed platform to the outside of the duck blind so that hunting dogs can get in and out during retrieval. A transom portion enables attachment of an outboard motor and relocation of the duck blind.
