[QUOTE="Mike.123, post: 506719, member: 34844"] Hey guys, new to the forum. I just purchased a 16.5’ bass boat. I believe it’s a 1970 Sea Nymph. It’s need new wood and carpeting and transom wood. I’m pretty hand but have some questions. First question is, would regular 3/4” plywood covered in Thompson’s water seal be sufficient? Also, the second picture is the rear of the boat. Can I remove say half of this foam and put use this space for storage? Or is that not a great idea? Also, how would I go about figuring the best motor option for the boat. We go to smaller lakes often but also have some bigger lakes we’d like to hit. Ideally I’m thinking a 9.9 for the smaller lakes and a 25hp for the bigger lakes? With a bow mounted trolling motor.
