Here are some pics of the boat project I am currently working on. I fished out of it for a year and half and finally decided to fix it up. The stickers were peeling, the carpet was shot and coming up, the wood was horribly cut, the seats were coming apart at the seams and the wiring looked like a rats nest. I tore everything down and ground all of the old glue off (this step took the longest). The foam was mostly saturated and there were several cracks that I had welded. I also went over the trailer while the boat was off and repacked the bearings, painted the wheels, ran new wiring, painted the trailer, and installed all new wood/carpet. The boat was was cleaned, etched with Jasco, primed with a self-etching primer and painted with Natural Gear stencils The new floor is 11 gauge aluminum and the floor/decks will be covered with Tuff Coat and painted to match the tan color on the outside of the boat. I bought a new Lowe console and installed that as well and the seats are new Max4 camo. There is new closed cell foam as floatation also. I still need to install the front deck after I brace it some more and install the tubes for the rod holders. After that it will get another coat of Tuff Coat and painted. Once that is done the switches, fish finder, and all other electrical will be finished. Hopefully I will be fishing out of it in a couple weeks.
