    how to straighten gunwhale on aluminum jon

    My 1448 Monark has one spot where the gunwhale is dented in. Its not a sharp dent and is towards the center of the boat. Is there any way to straighten this out on my own? My boat was a work boat in its prior life and as such has plenty of "character." I can deal with all of it because the...

    Trailer that came with my 1448 Jon seems a little off

    Ok check out the attached pics and see if you can see whats going on with the trailer. The PO adding a front crossmember to the trailer to support the bunks, its rusted up bad so I assume it was raw steel. I dont really understand if this was necessary or not - the bunks were basic 2x6s that...

    Just picked up a 1448 jon that needs some TLC

    I got it from a guy who had it setup to bowfish from so it already has a rather large deck on the front. My problem is that the deck goes all the way to the top of the boat. It sort of worries me since I know most decks that I see on here are a few inches below the top. If it was a wooden...
