[QUOTE="surfer4191, post: 33572, member: 526"] I've had this boat for about 5 years now. Bought it with a different trailer and motor that looked to be from the 70's as well. Paid $400 for it. A short while after I bought it I went and got myself a new 4-stroke Johnson (9.9 hp). I also, just in the last few weeks, had to buy a new trailer. The old one was rusted to the max. I use the boat here in Florida for fishing and going out to the islands to party with friends. I'll post a picture from this past Memorial Day from where we call "Disappearing Island". Over a thousand people anchor their boats off the island, which is located right in front of Ponce Inlet where the Intracoastal flows into the Atlantic Ocean. It's always a lot of fun. They even set up a stage and generators and have a band that plays Here are my plans for the boat. What I want is to pull out the middle seat completely, build a small deck on the front, and make floors for the bottom so that the water will run underneath and not get everything wet. If you could post links to someone else that has taken a seat out or built floors in an alumacraft that would be awesome. I've got some good ideas already. [/QUOTE]
