    Question on new Alumacraft hulls (V14/V16)

    Simple questions, but since I haven't seen a new one in person yet, I figured I would ask... The new v14/16 hulls have the center seats with storage on the sides that allow a center walkway (not a bench seat). I plan to remove them in my future boat to have an open layout, are these structural...

    Lots of random bolts/holes, what would you do?

    I finally got some time to start patching up my boat. I have a bunch of bolt holes throughout the hull. I have some larger ones I plan to patch with epoxy/fiberglass/riveting plates. BUT for the randomly dispersed bolt holes - I am not sure the best method of action. I have a few thoughts - I...

I got a 1.5 year old and work opposite shifts as my wife so it probably will be updated slowly. I have been researching quite a bit, but will ask questions in this single thread to...

    Which V-hull 14' has the widest beam?

    All, Im sorry if this has been posted before. BUT, I have been on every manufacturer website I can find/remember! I am looking for a v-hull in the 14 range. I live in south Florida, so some of the Canadian makes probably wont make it down here. I am trying to price out and find some that have...

    Adding foam to the outside of a jon boat.

    So, I think this might have been brought up before. I searched but couldnt find exactly what I was looking for. I am not talking about PODS for the rear, but actually sticking foam to the outside of the boat to increase stability while standing near the sides inside the boat. My questions is...
