    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    Nothing new has happened to the Crestliner since the last update, I'm waiting on funds. I was however looking over the stuff I do have for it. The steering that came with the boat is a tilt tube style but the motor doesn't have a tube. Is there another method to get this working together? Is...

    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    Well I just come in from tinkering with the engine. After a couple minutes of wiring the solenoid and jumping the from my van battery it fired right up. I couldn't be happier right now. Oh and I only paid $140 for the motor.

    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    The joints of the two metals really aren't that bad. I have no previous history on this boat so no clue as to when the floor was put in.

    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    Got busy as soon as I got home from work today. I got the old plywood out. Underneath it was a cobbled together frame of different shapes and sizes of steel. The aluminum braces that it is screwed to was welded to the hull. I'm not too happy about that but I'll deal.

    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    I wondered about the Walker decal as I couldn't find anything on them. The logos on the transom caps are bothering covered and I don't have my impact at home to start removing stuff. I'll grab it from work tomorrow. This is the better of the two caps as far as visibility of the logo.

    My first build 14' Crestliner Deep V

    I've been wanting a fishing boat for a while now and I needed a project for my son and myself to work on together. I found this boat on CL for $100. It seems like everything local to me were way over priced IMO or too small. At least with this one if it's over priced (I'm sure it will be) it's...
