[QUOTE="vantangler, post: 415187, member: 21252"] Hi all! Long time lurker, first time poster! I completed by tin boat to "Bass Boat" conversion last week, and thought I would share the end result with a community that unknowingly helped me along the way. This is by no means anything special, but a great little boat for little lakes. I originally got the boat trailer and motor off a guy in exchange for doing some masonry work (circa 2014). This is about two years of gradual modification, sequenced as close to chronological as I remember. First thing was adding a casting deck. This was made from an old pallet, some leftover 1/2" ply and some spar varnish: [ATTACH type="full" alt="10628083_10152235937506993_2434966439729258754_n.jpg"]85778._xfImport[/ATTACH] Turned out well!
