    Check with the guys on the Pensacola fishing forum, they should be able to point you in the right direction of a custom shop in the area. One with black powder coated bows and hunter green fabric would look great on that boat.

    1448 with 9.9 will it Plane ?

    I would say maybe with 1 or 2, not 3, but maybe with none. If not a cheap alternative is to mod a 9.9 into a 15 if ya find a nice used 2 smoke Evinrude or Johnson.

    should i pull the trigger on this fiberglass boat

If your dad has mad skills with fiberglass, I say strip er down to bare hull re gelcoat the exterior and build er back up with all composites on the interior and follow something like an express stick steer boat for a layout and find a nice used 75hp 2...
