Thanks for joining!

Depending on what you mean to Fix, anything is possible. What are you trying to do? Can you post a picture or two?
 
Depends on how far you want to go. Could be as simple as putting in flat floors to stand on or really putting time in. This is a link to what I've done so far.

Also search for V boat conversions. Some of these people have done some awesome things.
 
here is where mine stands at this time.https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=6735
 
I have a 1467 Lowe (the 67" is widest point I am certain.) and it is plenty stable decked to the tops of the benches on the bow and stern. The sections between the beches are raised high enough to stow my gear under and still have some leg room sitting. I will post a link to my build later and some updated pics, as I modified the front deck recently.

Here is a link to my build. Everything is the same basicly with the exception of updated wiring, battery placement, and the front deck is raised to the top of the front bench height. I was fishing in the Tidal Delaware River the other day with my family aboard while standing on the bow platform. https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1319&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

I really can't add anything without pics of your boat and what you would like or how you would like to set up your boat.It's mostly getting ideas and trial and error until you find a set up that works for you and anyone you may take with you.I have experience building pontoons.I have also bass fished from a lot of different types and styles of boats.It's still trial an error for me when I put something together.
