[QUOTE="Good Ol Sarge, post: 198248, member: 5761"] hi everyone,im brand new here. just wanted to show some pics of my first boat. i pieced it together over the long winter. most of everything i got was off craigslist. first i picked up the 2007 grizzly tracker 1448 for about 1000 bucks. then i purchased a new trailer from a marina. my motor is a 2005 Johnson 15hp 2 stroke.the boat itself is in great shape, few scratches but nothing major. the guy i bought it from had installed a wood floor because the 2007 model didnt come with the aluminum floor. it was a little ruff, uneven and kind of high, it was partially covering the storage compartment under the front deck. plus i really didnt like the way the green turf rug looked! i replaced the floor with 4 smaller beams and a 3/4 pressure treated piece of plywood. now the floor sits just under the compartment and it looks pretty good with the new marine carpet i put down.i was actually thinking about replacing the wood beams with some sheets of foam insulation to cut back on some weight. does anyone have experience or advice for that? i thank everyone in advance for any input![ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0263.JPG"]23161._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0572.JPG"]23162._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0579.JPG"]23163._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0620.JPG"]23164._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
