[QUOTE="manley09, post: 177001, member: 2750"] First off just want to say this site is great. Finally started on my boat. My plan is to add a deck to the front and the back. [b]NEW PICS ADDED BELOW!![/b] [b]UPDATE!!! NEW MOD OF THIS BOAT:[/b] [url]https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=25065[/url] Here is some idea of how I want it to look like when I'm done. [ATTACH type="full" alt="template-1.jpg"]19166._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here is what I started with. All those little dots on the rivets are from the aluminum boat patch from cabelas I was using that to fix the leaks last summer. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1228101336.jpg"]19167._xfImport[/ATTACH] First thing I did was replace about 50 rivets that leaked pretty bad. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1228101241.jpg"]19168._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then started to remove the bench seats. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1229101050.jpg"]19169._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then I started building the framing out of some aluminum angle I had laying around. [ATTACH type="full" alt="0121111356.jpg"]19170._xfImport[/ATTACH] Another view. [ATTACH type="full" alt="0121111403.jpg"]19171._xfImport[/ATTACH] And finally a rough template of the front of the deck. [ATTACH type="full" alt="0122111225.jpg"]19172._xfImport[/ATTACH] There's still a lot I have to do though. There is a big crack in the aluminum in the back end, going to have to get that welded. I'll update again when I make more progress. [/QUOTE]
