14' Smoker Craft Big Fisherman Mods

[brownel02]

So I sold my big boat last year (Yamaha AR210) and my daughter was sad that we wouldn't be able to fish so I told her I would pick up a little fishing boat this spring. Here she is (sometimes I get carried away).


Boat as I brought it home


Getting started (rotten wood must go!)




Front seat and deck gone


Rear Deck removed


Front Deck Concept (anchor locker and 2 storage compartments)


Deck and Framing in



Storage and Electronics


Getting there (like the head? )



With any luck we will be on the water this weekend (5/6). Still needs a touch of paint and some accessories installed. Once the inside is set I will service the motor (Merc 9.9 2-stroke) and we are set. More updates to follow.

Thanks all. We took it out last weekend and other than a clogged main jet (which has been taken care of) it went well. No fish but a good time was had by both of us. Once I ensure the motor is running 100% we will take it to the river to try for some stripers.
