    Extra stability ideas

    Thanks guys for the input. The boat really isnt horrible just just not enough for any motor. I got a 2.5 on it now and the trolling motor is just fast. Im sitting low enough that if i go any bigger im afraid I will take on water. I figured on putting some floats on the back to help that problem...

    Extra stability ideas

    My build is lacking stability on the side to side movement. Also while im building something for this I want to build some more flotation for the rear of the boat. Everthing in the boat and two people is a little to much weight for adding an outboard of any size. Ive seen builds with float boxes...

    1-man boat idea/brainstorm

    I like your idea but dont know if you will have the room for a console or will be able to float it without building some kind of float boxes on the sides. I decked mine from the middle bench to the front and added a livewell. I added a large livewell because I plan on running jugs and I bate...

    Aluminum Transom?

    Thanks for the compliment on my build. Im not sure how you could do that with aluminum. Im sure theres a way but I havent seen anyone do it. If it was me I would try to get a piece of hardwood and treat it. That would last alot longer than just plywood. Maybe someone will see the post thats done...

    Aluminum Transom?

    I did this with my 1232. I just double two sheets of aluminum with a third square of aluminum where the motor mounts. I just didnt want to have to replace a peice of wood 10 or 15 years down the road. Theres a link to my build on my sig if you want to see a pic of it. hope this helps you out.

    Hello, first post...a few questions about my Valco

    Nice boat. Good find on the trailer too. Looks like the boats cleaning up nice too. I dont know on the brackets where you find any like them. I would try to make some if it was my boat. Only thing about conduit is I dont think its aluminium. If its not it will cause corrosion where the...

    hydro-turf

    Dont know about the turf but i wouldnt think it would be any better than carpet. Theres is a vinyl covering that is made for boats that would work well for this. I know bass pro carries it.

    Hello, first post...a few questions about my Valco

    1 I know Lowes and Home Depot both carry glue remover. Dont know the name but ask for carpet glue remover. 2 Not sure what brackets your talking about. Might need to take a picture and upload it so everyone can see it. I do know that you dont want to use anything but aluminium for the brackets...

    Fish and depth finder advise

    Do you do any fishing where there is heavy silt deposits? The lake I fish is loaded with silt. It changes with every big rain. The little 100 dollar fish finder are really hard to get setup for a good read on the bottom in this bog. Hoped the DI units might be a little better for this.
