wouldnt you need to custom make controls for that motor?? also make a custom consol. the best way would be with aluminum due to not as much weight.if your not good with metals these metal guys are looking for work. so if you buy the materials and make measurements they will probably fab it up...

off to a great start. i have a 1232, in my opinion dont go overboard with the decking, especially with wood. i did a front and back deck and it added a little bit too much weight for my liking.

it looks good, round is good for any bait.

208 for the 2nd day of sept in 2008 CJ was born :lol:

thanks guys. i will post another topic on my alarm clock ideas. the sunday before my wife poped (2 weeks early) we were out on a freinds boat fishing 23miles offshore. it was only 2-4 but i think thats what did it. we did the whole 4wheeling thing at the first part of the pregnancy probably not...

dont feel bad. look at it this way, you are modernizing it to your liking. Welcome and get some pics

thanks guys. first one. i want him to get his sea legs early, so once i find a bigger boat he will be comming with me.

I havent been on for a while due to a new baby boy. Casey James Born 9/12/2008. Now its defenatly time for a bigger boat. Whats a good age to take him out fishing?? If he's 3 weeks old now im thinking fishing before the holidays?:D And i guess thats what floats my boat

that trailer came out awesome. like mentioned before take care of your trailer and it will take care of your boat. good progress so far.

17 please

i did wood for the same reason you are questioning it. wood you have more lee-way but quite a bit heavier. i used wood and my next jon i will use aluminum. wood if you leave it outside in the weather you have to worry about rot. aluminum you have to worry about corrosion(white powder/residue)...

thanks bass i knew you would have an answer for me.

Im looking to buy this motor but the posting says "Runs good high speed not so good low speed" any guru's out there know what this could be? carb? lower unit? motor itself fried? for the price i just want to know what im getting into. its a 1977 25hp electric start, tiller, johnson for 180$

my neighbor had an older tracker that had grey carpet on it. i went to the home depot and got grey indoor/outdoor carpet and he says it is just like his old tracker.

i did mine in the krylon flat olive and havent had any probs with it.

Welcome! if you take your time and have pride in what you are going its one of the greatest accomplishments you can singly do. post pics before any mods and all of your progress. if you need help just ask.

well there ya go. the better platform for cheaper(in my opinion)i would go for it.

good luck with the build. if you take your time and measure (2)twice and cut (1) once, you will be in good shape. :wink:

i would go with the lund.. but which is cheaper? where and what would you do with the boat. last but not least are you decking it? if you are which do you feel more comfortable with a deck on. hope these help you sort it out.

good lookin boat for a minute i thought that was my wifes puggle. good job on the build good luck on the water
