    Looking real good. Love how the floor turned out. Hope you have some luck on one or both of the engines. If not, I'd buy the hull from ya:)

    Thanks Rich. I haven't checked if the bunks are treated or not but check all the other boxes in your post. Probably add more bunks and get rid of the rollers. I'll be launching this without a ramp most of the time anyway.

    what size trolling motor so you have?

    45lb minn kota. Has a battery light and a 18ft cord for the control but isn't quite big enough for the 1648. The foot control isn't as nice as one of the pedal styles and it's a pita to pull back up onto the boat tbh. If I did it over I buy a bigger, nicer one with the pull string and the pedal...

    Saw this boat a couple weeks ago while traveling to a nearby town. It was upside down next to a shed. Looked to be 10,12 ft long from the road so I asked my friend who lived nearby if they knew who owned the property. Turns out she did and after a couple days she texts me saying they would take...

    Catfish homebrew baits. What do you use?

    I like turkey liver because it's a little tougher and stays on the hook better. never got into the exotic catfish baits I hear about.

    First time boat owner - 1236 Alumacraft Jon -

    I wouldn't worry about imperfections. Even the brand new bass trackers in front of bass pro have them.

    Need a reason to tie your boat down??? Watch this (4 mins)

    That was hilarious. I've always been a nervous nelly when it comes to trailering so hopefully I never get relaxed enough to do something like this. Great find Rich.

    Strike King KVD 1.5 crank baits

    Were you fishing around rocks and such? Might have just been bad luck. Friend of mine casted one off the bridge we were fishing under and reeled in only the bill. That got a laugh.

    10ft jon boat to small?

    I'm 210 or so and gave away my 10 footer to a friend so her two young sons could put it on their pond. That way at least someone could get some use out of it. I fished from it in a local lake that was super shallow and never did feel comfortable standing up in it. A 1236 or 1242 is probably the...

    What did you catch today?

    Didn't realize this thread was still around. Been catching a bunch of bass but nothing of size. Did manage to hook myself badly for the first time last Thursday. This pic is after I've twisted it around. The way it was hooked was pointed straight at the bone with no chance of pushing it through...

    Unknown 14ft boat conversion (Completed)

    Nice looking boat and fish. Well done:)

    20hp mercury-key???

    Only way to find out is to call your local dealer. Where I work if the vehicle is too old we can't get the codes from the manufacturer but a local locksmith is able to somehow. I send people to him when I can't get it. Not sure of the differences between automotive and boats though. Some locks...

    Tracker PT 190 or PT 195...input please.

    Checked out the 195 at bass pro a couple weeks ago and they are fantastic looking. Tons of casting room front and back. What I liked the most was the rod storage up front. It can fit 12 8' rods. Very impressive vessel.

    Removing the hook from a deep hooked fish...

    Great advice Rich. Killed a crappie I didn't intend to keep a couple weeks ago for that very reason. Greedy sucker just swallowed it down but this would have helped. I'll use it in the future:)

    Sunscreen, hats, long sleeves, sun glasses etc....

    Will do lol. Just thought it'd be hilarious to show up at the tourney with a greased up, golden brown pot belly slinging lures in a camo banana hammock. Good luck with your recovery!

    Good thing you got it taken care of early. Thanks for the heads up. Starting to rethink my idea of a camouflage speedo on tournament Thursday at the local lake now.
