[QUOTE="oldschool863, post: 313048, member: 11609"] This is a 1957, 12 ft, Lonestar Corvette that I acquired and was in pretty rough condition when I recieved it. Unfortunately I did not take any pictures before I removed the paint but needless to say it was not a good looking boat. I stripped it and repainted it and replaced the transom. I am going to use this boat for fishing and duck hunting in Florida and I would like some ideas of what I could do to improve it. I would like to know how I could mount my trolling motor on the bow without building a plywood deck (as I have seen many others do). I would also like to know how I could put flat decking in between the seats without adding a lot of weight to the boat. This is not a necessity, just something that would make life a little easier (and not as loud) while moving around. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
