    1971 Alumacraft Model A

    Hey Everyone, I had an old Alumacraft boat that I purchased when I was a teenager, and I sold after college because I wasn't using it and I needed the cash. Well, I've since regretted it and wanted to get a similar boat to what I used to have. I accomplished that and picked up this 1971...

    Wetlander vs. Steelflex

    New Boat Identity Help?

    I had a 15' Alumacraft that I bought when I was 16 years old. To make a long story short, I sold it after restoring it because I was in need of the cash for a move that I made. I've regretted it ever since and wanted to find the same or similar model, and I think I've done that. Re-doing the...

    Is a 30 pound thrust trolling motor enough?

    Hey all, I'm newer to the boards, so I'm assuming that this topic has been asked before but I couldn't find opinions from the search thread. I have a 14' alumacraft and I'm wondering if a minn kota trolling motor with 30 lb. thrust will be ok? I have a really good price on one, but if I won't...

    Opinions on 1972 Alumacraft

    Hey all, I'm a brand new member to the board. I bought this boat when I was 16 and this spring I grinded the old hunter's green boat paint off (probably 20+ years) and I left the bottom just the aluminum and the top I painted blue. These are old pictures of my boat before I finished painting...
