I am actually in central Saskatchewan Canada, we don't use the same freedom units as you guys down south haha. I agree though, the vinyl really came out like I wanted which was nice, not too hot, not slippery and easy to clean.

Well, more progress again. I have finished all of the framing for the rear casting deck and installed it. I used 3/16 aluminum angle for all of the framing and used about 50' to frame out the support for the deck. As the pictures show the blue cooler on the left will be plumbed as a livewell and...

Well, more progress again. I have since installed the fuel tank and oil tank, installed the piano hinges on the three side compartments, waterproofed and installed vinyl on the casting deck and seating area and built in some battery trays under the passenger seat. I am pretty happy with how the...

Well, more progress again, although it feels to be coming along quite slowly. Since my last post I have finished the aluminum framing for the seating area and cut the tops for the frames. I have also cut out the shape of the casting deck and the hatches for the livewell and access to both the...

Well hello to those of you that are still following along on my little rebuild project. Today was a very very long day doing all of the vinyl for the boat (with the exception of the casting deck, which is yet to be built). This was a long, slow process. I used 45 mil dek-master vinyl and the...

Well, another busy couple of days has led me to update again. On the docket this time was cutting the flooring as well as the wood for the side storage areas. First I buttoned up the rest of the back end around the foam and then laid in the floor. It was quite easy as the back portion is...

Well, a little progress in the past couple of days. When removing the foam I noticed that each section between the stringers was waterlogged, after looking at the drainage it was quite obvious that while it would drain large amounts of water, small amounts would be trapped. To fix this I just...

Hello, I have been perusing the site for awhile and have gathered many good ideas from seeing all of the successful rebuilds that have been completed. From that, I have a new to me 18' Lund Alaskan with a 2001 Evinrude 75hp engine. The hull is a 1990 and is all original currently. With that...

Sorry, the HIN is in the album, but here it is as well. ZLU00345D09C-Y and the Y is in a circle for some reason. The odd part it seems is the last four digits, which should date it, dont seem to match up correctly with any HIN decoder I can find.

Hello all, New to the site and relatively new to boating as a whole. Last year bought an older and beat up 16' aluminum with a 77 evinrude 35 that was not running, after rebuilding the starter, carb and water pump it ran like a dream and we had many good times on the lakes in Saskatchewan...
