Two years? It's been two hers since I updated this thread? Where does time go? My first son is now 2 and I have another son on the way to be here in December. The 2060 is going STRONG and it gets wet a couple times a month. No new mods to the boat besides some dents and scratches but I love...

Well, where did the last 4 months go? Kid is getting too big too quick. Momma is awesome. I'm ready for another baby. Wait, what?! Being a dad is the best. I am a changed man and love it. I hope you all are doing great. Here are some pics of the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.

Here's my fix to leaky rivets. https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17096&p=235082&hilit=Durafix#p235082

Your build looks a lot like my budget jet jon. The build thread is in my signature. Looks great so far. This brazing rods are awesome. I did not use that particular brand but the ones I used worked absolutely awesome. Here is a link...

Well, here he is. Weston John. 7lbs 11oz and 20" long. Perfect baby boy born 6-4-14. It's been quite the experience so far. Crazy to say the least. I never thought I could love something so unconditionally. I'm a big softy now. Everything is different. When people told me "you'll understand...

You guys are awesome. I love it, both the tips and the heart felt truths of being a parent. Thanks again.

Thank you a lot. The crazy thing is everyone has their own experiences and they can share what worked for them. I had a good buddy of mine tell me today to never heat up their leftovers. Just take it out of the fridge and feed it to them. Saves time and it works. Things like that are the...

So I'm sitting on my back porch tonight thinking about my future. My wife is due to have our first baby, a son, on May 27, which happens to be next Tuesday. I'm drinking a nice cold beer, the pork steaks are boiling on the grill in a beer and BBQ sauce mixture, and I just realized that this...

Looks awesome so far!! I bet it performs well.

Well, it's been a while since I last posted. The boat now has 90+ hours on it and I still love it as much as the first day I got it. I had some issues with a couple welds popping. Randy at Gator fixed everything and I am still very happy with the guys over there. I have learned quite a lot...

The way I drive and fish, durability all day.

I went to Table Rock this past weekend and had a blast. I have been there a few times before and it is either hit or miss. This time we went with a group of 10 and stayed at Big Cedar Lodge. I highly recommend Big Cedar. It was amazing. I caught 12 keepers total in 3 days and caught about...

I believe there is a market for someone to build a kit for jet jons and sell it. A "here's everything you need, just put it together" type kit. People don't know what they are missing. Put it out there and it will sell, slowly at first, but it will sell. I hope this all works out with this...

She's a keeper. I always tell people that there is a special place in heaven for my wife for dealing with me all this time. We dated for almost 10 years and have been married for 14 months. She is amazing and nuttier than a squirrel turd, but I love her. And she lets me fish pretty much...

:beer:

I'll be out on the Meramec from the Palisades to Shady beach with my wife and dogs on Sunday. If you see a maroon gator jet with a beautiful blonde, a 90 lb American bulldog and a fat little French bulldog, that is me. Hope to see a ton of boats out.

I walked it first to make sure. We stopped here the week before when it was 7" higher. Honestly, this boat takes everything I give it. I have run 3-4" numerous times and it takes it with little to no rubbing of rocks. If you see how I started the video when I was facing downstream and...
