Asked a few questions here and got some good help so I figured I would join the family and document my fishing/duck boat build here...
I got a good deal on a 1980 Lowe Big Jon 1648 boat. It came with a descent galvanized trailer and a 2003 25hp Mercury 2stroke.
I bought it about a month and a half ago. My goal is to build a nice budget boat that can be used for hunting during the season and fishing the rest of the year.
Here she is when I bought her...
