THANKS EVERYONE! I have the next week off so I will be digging into it pretty deep.

Just wondering whats the best approach on carpet install, do you guys install the floor first than do the carpet over that or carpet it then install. just wondering pros and cons. thanks

All right everybody I took your advice and tore up the floor and sure glad I did! the foam was like a block of ice, worse than I thought. I will be replacing the rivets that look bad but the PO tried to put silicone and jb weld on some if it. But I want to gluvit the inside. 2 question is should...

WHY DID THIS POST GET MOVED? BUT THANKS FOR THE ANSWERS

But I have heard of a lot of people put it on the outside, is this not the right way? Or not the best way. I just didn't want to redo the whole boat this year

How do you guys suggest flipping it over? do I have to take the motor off as well? I was hoping for an easy way out but guess not

I sold my old 14 ft and bought a Lund 16ft that I'm looking at redoing. Had it out a couple of times last year and had to run the bilge pump so I think there's some bad rivets. I looked underneath it and the PO tried to silicone the ribs. So my question is can I gluvit the bottom without...

Well was able to get the rest done sat. All I have left is the decals that im waiting for and the trailer is next. I know I kind of did things in reverse but I get to antsy when start a project. THANKS TO THIS SITE FOR ALL THE HELP!

Sorry to hear about your mom. Looks like a great boat. It actually looks like my alumacraft 14ft FD with seats removed already. I have a few post on that I started a mod on. I really mod it to be able to fish with my son and brother but a lot of memories will be made with my father. they are...

I have yet put foam back in. but the floor is easily removable for cleaning and such. I plan on cutting and placing foam between the braces. the boat had no foam to speak of but I think the seats were sealed air tight for floatation. still need to do the wiring also and hinges and finish a few...

Got it sanded down and filled with water and found some leaks so sanded all the rivets and put some 5200 on them and ready for final sanding. removed 2 seat and trying to figure out the floor layout. so far its been a fun project. do you think the .083 aluminium will be thick enough for the...

Well finally got it pulled in the garage. planning on taking out the middle two benches and putting in a floor and storage on the sides and front and back. I have some sheets of aluminium that is .083 thick that I plan on using for the floor but may have to brace it pretty good. have to replace...
