[QUOTE="Rick James, post: 162622, member: 3092"] Thanks bassman. I haven't actually dropped the boat in the water yet. Plans are to do that before I start the raised floors so I can get a sense of how high I can safely go. It's fairly deep (23" if I remember correctly at the deepest point), about 42" across the floor at the widest point, and it has a zero deadrise transom on it, so it should be very stable for a 12 semi V while actually fishing. Plans are now to add a foot control electric to the bow, and then try and find one of the 70's or 80's model 15hp Johnson/Evinrude 2 strokes for the back. The boat is rated for up to 15hp, and I bet it's gonna fly with one on there. :D [/QUOTE]
