[QUOTE="Jerseysure, post: 445486, member: 23198"] Boat - 1986 mirrocraft/northport deep fisherman model # F3614 Specs - Aluminum , 14' , 5'4" beam , 225 lbs . Project goals - Re-paint outside and add decks , while keeping the boat safe and sound . Budget - 300-400 usd. Use - Freshwater lakes and reservoirs . Why I am here - Any info that can be applied to this type of boat before I go chopping and hacking . Personal experience with this style of deck stability on the water or working with this material . Material suggestions for the framework ; wood , metals , sealant , hardware ect . Paint/painting suggestions - I will be doing this cheap and using rollers and an outdoors carport . I plan on removing that middle bench seat and adding a nice flat deck with supports like in the picture below .
