[QUOTE="CoolHand, post: 211440, member: 4102"] Getting ready to go fishing and I took some more pics in the daylight. I thought I would share. I'm pretty happy with my work. I met my goals of keeping it light keeping the floor low for stability in a boat that isn't as wide as some, and making it functional. The only thing I planned to do initially that I didn't do is cut the middle seat. The more I looked at it the more apparent it was that in this boat that seat was a structural component. I probably could have engineered some tubing in place of the seat to handle a livewell or something but that is a future project after I see how it handles at the current weight. The mid seat is low anyway so it isn't really bothersome for me. Here are the pics... Trailer bunks and paint done [img]https://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/CoolHandBoat/BoatRestore/IMG_20110702_170009.jpg[/img] Up on the trailer [img]https://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/CoolHandBoat/BoatRestore/IMG_20110702_170908.jpg[/img] Another view [img]https://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/CoolHandBoat/BoatRestore/IMG_20110702_170922.jpg[/img] Whole package with the motor [img]https://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/CoolHandBoat/BoatRestore/IMG_20110702_171151.jpg[/img] Maybe I'll add some action shots of it on the water soon. Glad to be done for now. [/QUOTE]
