hey guys just was doing some googling and stumbled onto this site. seems great so far
I picked upa boat and trailer last fall and have been working on it till winter. its a Springbok make and i have a 1972 Johnson 20hp going onto the back
as you can see in the pics it needed some work. I picked it up for $200 boat and trailer which was fine by me.
here some pics.
The day i got it (with new bearings and rims)
then i rebuilt the trailer.
Then boat goes back onto trailer to continue work.
I then had to deal with the rotten transom.
I was an idioit and didn't take a good look at how to remove the transom and i took the side of the boat apart to remove it insted of the middle support bracket. stupid me. I then bought the right tools to install solid rivits and got to work putting the side back together.
then winter came and the boat sat in the back yard till now and i STILL don't know if my side repairs worked or where it leaks elts where in the boat.
ill be updating when i do get a chance thats forsure, look forward to comments
