    10' Jon boat....

    I submit to you, my entry into the worst picture ever contest!! Just kidding... really... I want to put a full casting deck on this boat, with a livewell, a 90HP outboard and captains chairs. I am just not sure if I should make the deck out of teak or plate steel.... Oh, sorry... just...

    14' 1970 Starcraft Seafearer

    Oh man! I came here to post about my new project and see I never posted a picture of the finished project!! It was just me and the dawg, and it is not a great picture but you can see the compromise between a casting deck and a "floor"... it made for a nice fishing platform and we got our more...

    Decking-When and when not to.

    Hey all, this is a terrible picture (It is more of my chicken $hit dog hiding in the bow) but it shows my first attempt at a "floor" and carpeting on a boat. I have since removed the staples that were a temporary measure to ensure the glue sets well... It is a Starcraft Seafearer...

    Bumping out dents

    Personally, I have fond memories associated with all of my dents :) They don't bother me, I don't bother them and neither of us leak :)

    14' Starcraft Seafarer Build

    That's awesome. I have the same boat, I am just getting started. I picked up the last of the items I needed to get going... or at least that I think I need. It's a race to beat the melting ice!
