    Attaching rails/tower etc to gunwales??

    I'm looking at my '82ish Sea Nymph 14R and considering the possibility of attaching bow/side rails to the boat as an added safety measure for my kids. Also considering mounting some kind of lightweight tower out back for rod holders and such. This boat has what appear to be extruded aluminum...

    Deconstructing a v14 Superguide or similar?

    I'm looking at some older factory built boats online and it looks like the basic hull design hasn't changed any, just the way they do the layout. A number of the older boats I've seen look like my 14R with the middle seat removed and they built over and around the fore and aft seats. Anyone ever...

It looks like on the interior there is a typical block of wood sandwiched between the hull and a sheet of aluminum. On...

    How many of you enjoy a "Beater Boat?"

    Beaters all the way. I fix other peoples stuff all week so the last thing I want to do is spend a bunch of time after work maintaining toys. I bought a 14R on a galvanized trailer and found an old Montgomery Wards Johnson 9HP two stroke. I have a grand wrapped up in the whole package. If any of...
