[QUOTE="bhwadeuk, post: 427970, member: 21994"] Got some good work in over the weekend. Pulled the old registration sticker, numbers, and factory decals. Pulled the motor set it on the new stand. Pressure washed the mud out. Have a couple of questions after going over the boat a bit more. I was somewhat interested in possibly adding pods to the rear. However, there are 2 bolts that run through the transom where I believe the pod would mount. Based on their location, can the bolts be moved and the old holes sealed over? Any thoughts/suggestions? [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0627.JPG"]89683._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0631.JPG"]89684._xfImport[/ATTACH] There is a dent in the bottom of the boat towards the bow (Rake?). My questions is can the by popped out or fixed in some way? The problem is that it is beneath the welded on deck and would be difficult to access without removing the deck? If the dent is not fixed will this affect performance? Is it even worth fixing on a beater duck boat? [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0633.JPG"]89685._xfImport[/ATTACH] Going to start the fabrication of dual gunboxes soon, currently toying with design and how much money I want to sink into that project.
