[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 344887, member: 1523"] I'd get it wet and figure out what you really want to do with it and how you want to go about it. Looks like you have pin bases. If those bases aren't supported with backer plates they'll flex and feel crappy. On a first boat with no budget I'd just enjoy it and keep the budget down to bare necessities to keep it functional. Maybe put a simple floor in and figure out some kind of duck blind if you are that into ducks. I will say, I spent a huge amount of time in my boat just making motor noises and casting sinkers into the grass before I did any metal cutting. [/QUOTE]
