[QUOTE="glenbo8391, post: 260084, member: 8133"] Took her out last weekend with just trolling motor, and caught a few crappie. She held up pretty good, found out I've got a few rivets that are LOOSE that need replacing. After about two hours I had water about ankle deep in the front where I was. My buddy didn't have any in the back, I didn't know my extra 75# plus the trolling battery made that big a difference in how the boat sits. How do ya'll have your bilge pumps mounted on your flat bottoms? I've got mine in the middle in the back, but I've got to wait till there's about an inch of water at it before it will pick any up, is this normal? It was pretty stable, both of us could carefully stand when the water was smooth. I've got the front deck back from getting baked, but haven't had any time to trim it up and install it because if finals.... so I should have it installed, and the back deck back and installed after next week with pics. My decks are 9 in from the floor for storage and to mount pedestal seats on front and back. How high of pedestal seats would/have yall put in your 14/32 safely? [/QUOTE]
