I have always enjoyed those utility V model boats when ever I have rented them though.You are correct, the boat will be trailered and not spend any more time in the water than when I am using it. That's a great tip for the bunks, I would not have thought about using vinyl gutter for them. To build off this point, is there any special sealing that should be done to the transom before/after the outboard is mounted? Maybe a rhino lining on the transom? Any other areas in your mind that might need extra sealing?My background is aircraft and industrial maintenance, so I am not afraid of the sheet metal work. It looks like, however, even the most beat up hulls are still fairly expensive when you can find them. Fun is always the name of the game! The fresh fish is always a nice bonus as well.</blockquote>
