[QUOTE="gwenning, post: 270788, member: 7808"] The final steps for now include mounting everything and then taking it out for a test spin. I used a springfield king pin base and a 15in post with a bass pro tourney seat. The post is higher than normal due to my 6'4 stature. It's a little easier on the knees and allows me to sit a little higher. On the water the boat still sits really high and moved at 15mph on my handheld GPS with three people on it. The motor moved it just fine. Future plans will include making a rear casting deck then putting in a Ram mount for a humminbird DI combo. I'll also install running lights and a bilge pump with a switch panel mounted somewhere up front. Big thanks to all the inspirations on this forum including all recent 1648 modifications by jay415 and gillhunter. I'll be posting updates as time permits. [/QUOTE]
