Thanks for the warm welcome...I just stumbled on this site when looking for bassboat conversions from a Youtube video. The vid mentioned it was a picture compilation of members boats.

I havent converted a jon boat, but I have wanted too. I am thinking of selling my Smokercraft for something a little lighter and a 15hp ( with 9.9 stickers) setup. There are a few lakes close to my home that have a HP restriction of 10hp. I have my eye on a Carolina Skiff that is one of my friends, but he is having motor starting problems..

Hi Jon!

Good to hear someone from WV is on here.. Woot!

What part of Charleston are you from?

Do you fish Obrien in Ripley? I havent been on Woodrum and I have been out to Upper Mud several times. Its about a 45 min. drive from my home. This summer a buddy of mine is taking me to the school bus near Kanawha Falls to hit the small mouth up there..He said something about launching at the campground for a 5$ free so no one will break into your truck..
