Hi everyone. First let me say, thanks for everyone's help with the questions I had. Here is my boat. I had it for about 2 months and still don't know exactly what model it is. The registration said it's a 12 ft 1968 Sears Gamefisher however when I measured it, it's actually 13 1/2 ft. So who knows what it is really. All that I know is that it's mine and I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. Here are the pictures of what I did to it. Sorry it's a long post, I took a lot of pictures. I'll reply to this post with the rest of the pictures.

It looks really nice, I like the paint, looks to have a nice finish. What did you coat the inside with?
 
Here are the rest of the pictures and the finished product. I'm pretty proud of how it came out. Any comments or questions are welcomed.

I was looking for something cheap and easy so I used a truck bed liner that I painted in. I used 2 coats.
 
I am a big fan of simple designs too. Your boat is now a comfortable, all day, fishing machine. Lets see some fish now!

The only thing you might want to change eventually is the seat mounts, those things can be dangerous in choppy waters, trust me I know. :LOL2:
 
Thanks. Yea, sorry I didn't know if it qualified to be in the full mod section of the forum because it was just paint and carpet. I'll be out on the water on Thursday and will definitely get some pictures.
