My father helped me with the rebuild because he has more experience with that type of thing but it did not take that long at all. There are a couple basic guidelines with the kit to go by and just...

    vehicle lights on boat

    For now only one battery but eventually two batteries. I was just pondering the idea and I appreciate the input. I should probably just hold off any lights and when I finally do it just put in the proper lights.

    Can't Decide on a caliber

    Do you reload at all? Also what range would these coyotes be that you would be shooting?

    Coyote Hunting Rifle?

    I would go with the 742 since its semi automatic which will give a quicker second shot than working the bolt on the model 700. Like has been said before at that range either one will do just fine.

    1960 14 ft aluminum flat bottom

    Bought it from lowes for 52 cents a foot. Has rubber backing and a two yr warranty. I also tried to stick a treble hook into it with pretty good force and it wouldn't really go in at all which I was very impressed by.

    Anybody ever make outriggers for a small V boat?

    I was considering doing the same for my 14 ft flat bottom. I was thinking of attaching a piece of pvc pipe to the side with a big noodle in it to each side of the boat. Then maybe a 45 degree elbow on the front so it would run through the water a little bit better then capping the top of that.
