    Deck install in 1436

    My 1432 is a glorified canoe. A 1436 is a glorified row boat. I would not spray liner, it gets hot and if the boat is riveted which I believe toppers are. It could crack due to the flexing of the boat. I have seen it, though rare from people who spray lined the boat. If you are not installing...

    Plastic decking for bunks?

    i second the no pressure treated wood. I have a pin hole in my boat. And the last owner used carpet over pressure treated wood. Did not dawn on me until now but i would bet my pinhole is caused by the bunks also.

    it is not near a rivet. It is in the middle of the boat right under the front bench seat. Along a skeg, like i said it is not big. i will be able to investigate further once i get into the bench seat.

    I got a pin hole in my boat. I am talking a hole that small 1/16" wire will go through. I did not notice until late in the repainting of the boat. I am curious can I put some JB weld on it. Nothing serious on the leaking of course but it could possibly grow. And now I know why my boat gets a...

    i have not got that far. And I have decided to fix this boat up and sell it in order to get a bigger boat. 1432 is a little small for decks and such. I am going to just floor this and add a storage section in the front bench seat. I plan on using it on the 1754 I got my eye on.

    Braided line sucks! I'm going back to Stren.

    i never had any problems with pro line. I do know it is slick as all get out and i have had a standard clinch knot pull out. i always tie a standard clinch knot now and add 2 overhand knots. I catch 20-28 inch redfish with the set up on 20 lb pro line and since have never been broken off. I know...

    what've I got here? 14' starcraft

    If I remember correctly prior to 1970 the US Coast Guard did not require capicity/model plates. So, you might not have had one ever if it is a 1967 model boat. At least according to this: https://www.boatus.org/onlinecourse/ReviewPages/BoatUSF/Project/info1a.htm

    ok. I will sand it. It appears to be an adhesion issue. i can wipe it off with a tack cloth. I will re sand those spots and clean it up again with some solvent and re prime.

    So, I got the sanding started. All i can say is what a mess that makes. I have the bottom sanded 99% complete. I have one side almost done and the bow is done. So I have the port side the sand down. I have gone through 5 tack clothes and it is looking like a sanded boat. i am probably going to...

    I started sanding down the boat and i am going to apply the etching primer this week(end). The poor paint is like powder. it is the orginal factory paint from 1979 or so. It sands off with no effort. One of the many reasons I am painting it. I plan to paint it with quality paint from Interlux or...

    1976 Johnson 9.9 Seahorse

    One day my motor just quit running. I took it to the shop. They said it ran fine. i never could get it to run ever again. I re-built the carb. I changed the plugs. Cleaned the carb. Hit the carb with a 10 lb maul.. J/K. So, I went out and bought a used 2007 nissan 6hp 4-stroke for 600 bucks. i...
