[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 413126, member: 13975"] I just picked up a brand new boat this morning from the dealer. It is an Alumacraft 1648 NCS with the short transom on a Tennessee trailer. This is the first new boat I have ever purchased and it is really nice to have a blank canvas to go forward with. I'm a pretty poor photographer but here are a few pictures. [img]https://i.imgur.com/oxdfqS7.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/xsvsNpl.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/aGX8Qly.jpg[/img] My plans for this boat are very simple, but I will track whatever mods and rigging I do in this thread. Right now the only true modifications I would like to do would be to put in an aluminum floor, a custom hatch in the opening on the rear deck, and do a nice hydroturf install. Rigging will include the basic stuff for now including installing and wiring up a trolling motor, navigation lights, bilge, and putting in seat pedestal bases, rod holders, etc. I already have a bigger tin bass boat, but bought this one with the plans to fish a couple 10hp restricted lakes that are very close to my house plus use this boat in some skinny water I would rather not risk my other boat. I have a few motor options as I have a 1967 Evinrude 9.5hp, 1982 Evinrude 9.9hp, 1982 Evinrude 15hp, and 1959 Evinrude 35hp (35hp is the boats max rating). The condition of the 35hp is kind of unknown as it has sat for a while but the other 3 all run and have good compression numbers. [/QUOTE]
