After trolling around on here for several months, I finally decided to start my Alumacraft 14' Model F Mod.
I received the boat from a relative after it had been abandoned as long as I can remember.
The boat is in pretty solid shape. A bit dirty and the transom boards are rotted/ant infested, but nothing that I can't fix with a bit of elbow grease.
The boat is ~13'9" long and roughly has a roughly 48" beam. I am looking at adding a casting platform on the bow and a bow mount trolling motor as well as nav lights, a bilge pump, and a small outboard.
I will mostly be using the boat for bass fishing on lakes, but may also fish a few rivers now and then for walleye.
I will post as often as possible with pictures and I appreciate everyone's great posts and builds that have given me the confidence to tackle this first-time boat project.
