Hey Guys, heading down south for vacation this Saturday, and wondering what kind of fishing we should try to do. I may take a half day charter with Cpt. Tom Chaya, but results lately dont seem too positive when I spoke with him yesterday. Cold fronts, etc. Anyone have any other advice? Surf...

Please get a picture with the Seadek chick. :lol:

Wow very interesting. Saves your from buying two pumps too! Is this what you do in your boat? Good Looking SC so far Walder! What kind/color paint are you thinking of for the interior of the hull?

The ole LUND RED! :D

Wow lots of progress since I strolled thru here last. Awesome boat so far Dave!

Congrats on splashing your super nice, super functional LUND! =D> =D> Great build.

Thanks Scott! Those potlickers help with moral support!

Now I have the floors cut along with the casting deck. Going with carpet and going to hit the interior of the hull that will show, with some SE primer as it looks nasty right now What type of glue do you guys use to put the carpet down?? The light grey is SE primer, dark is carpet. Thoughts?

Warmed up a tad one weekend and I wanted to have some rewarding progress done, so I painted the hull. Rusto SE primer followed by rusto marine topside/catalyst hardener.

Got the motor out with all steering components. 4 nice seats and pedastals. 2 oem metal gas tanks. Lowrance FF. A paddle, map of Lake Erie fishing spots and maybe another thing or two. Paid 350 for everything and sold the empty boat and trailer away for 200. Made out pretty good. And in...

Picked up a third boat. Donor! 16 ft alum Duracraft

Ok so heres the update....I had twin girls Feb 20th, so all of 2014 has been twin-voloved with them. :LOL2: I picked up my third boat in 9 months.... Unsure of the year, but its an aluminum hull Duratech! Bought it for this specifically, with its steering and controls. 1978 50hp Johnson...

Getting some foam in and starting the floors Here you can see where the PO cut out the rear deck support, cut out the rod protector, and cut out the side console. All cutting could have been avoided by drilling out rivets ](*,) I think for the sake if finishing the project...

Boat back on trailer! Then got it inside the garage and ripped the old transom out. Not in too bad of shape and will work nicely for a template. \\

First I used Marine Tex Epoxy for my cracks/leaker spot....which ends up being some HARD stuff! Then covered it allllll in SF Black!!! That was fun. Especially when it started hardening during the last 20% of the job...Ill be faster next time.

I may or may not have picked up another boat since June :lol:

What motor would you rather buy for $400? And why? 1. 1972 18hp Evinrude short shaft 2. 1984 15hp Evinrude short shaft Both motors are very similar in condition… Both owners saying fresh rebuilds new water pump etc. The 84 comes with the gas tank 3 gallon. This would be for my 16 foot Sea...

Thanks guys. Have a few updates coming! On the road today so maybe tomorrow.
