I really like the pic of the finished boat.. That is what I want to do also!!

What would be the proper way to fix this?

Yea it's in the bottom .lol its well braced on the inside . The trailer I will scrap most likely mainly after just the boat. It pretty cool

I found this boat and went today and looked at it. It's around 48-50 wide and looks to have had a steering wheel long ago .. It has three ribs that run along the bottom. (I guess they are called ribs lol) anyway the two outside ribs have a small crack each about 6inches from the back. Will this...

I tried to load pics but can't get it to work. So if I can email a pic of it to somebody and they could post of it that would be great!! Never seen one like it going to look at it in the morning.. Thanks

Lol thanks for bringing me back to the real world!!! I will pass on it and wait for something bigger

I found a 2010 lowes Jon boat 1232 that is new never been used with a new 36lb minkota trolling motor clear title in hand.250 bucks seems like a great deal to me . What do you think?

Love the boat .. That would be AWSOME !! As far as the difference between Jon and v bottom really don't know to be honest . I think I may just be used to small Jon's 10 -12 footers narrow being kinda unstable .,just alway heard v was better but I don't really know why lol

Great points, probably have to take one at a time. 12 year old son 14 year old daughter . They can be best friends at times just nor most of the time.lol thank again

I think I'm set on the v now.. I just have to find one.lol but I'll keep picking up stuff I want to use for the boat till I actually find one. Kinda workin backwards I guess but a nice trolling motor and charger for 45 bucks just had to buy them!!!

That's what I'm thinking a 14ft v would that 47lb motor push it pretty good? Or atleast till I get a foot controlled bow mount. I'm already liking the sound of that 9.9 lol

Well were I'm at what we call a flat bottom or jOn boat are Differant than a semi v or a boat that starts out in a v in the front and goes flat . Jon's or what we call Jon's are always green and have rather short sides. Like I said we are only dumb rednecks here so we may not know what we are...

Hello all , It's been a while since I've been on here and am wanting a new project!! We have an 120 acre electric only lake about 15 min from my house. I want a boat That I can take my 2 oldest kids 12 and 14 out for a days fishing.. Would a Jon or semi v be the best? I already have a trailer...
