We have almost the exact layout and really like it. We have an entrance through the boat hide so the bench is divided in half. Also, we added a dog ramp to the front and used steps on the side entrance. The one issue on the side entrance is the crossbar which is forehead height...we reconfigured that between splits. Our is also permanently fixed on pilings and not floating.

Thanks for all the tips and advice!! I will be tying it up/down to trees for stability purposes..

Probably going to move the dog ramp to the front of the blind. And we are planning to fill the rear upright barrels a portion of the way (maybe 1/3) to add weight (to the back end) for more stability when there is weight in the front of the blind...

Software it was drawn up in is autocad inventor..

Some of the guys at the camp just finished a floating blind. It has a steel frame......they were about 20 of us when they brought it out to a field and put it on the ground and brushed it. long story short- it was learned that a plastic barrel supporting 750 lbs. will be half sunk.
