[QUOTE="Chase55tx, post: 375949, member: 16610"] I have been following tinboats for a while and I am amazed with the boat modifications that have been done and I am seeking any advice, input, links, sample projects etc - And this is my first boat project. I just acquired a 1446 Sports Kraft. (Do not know the age) It is 14 feet to the bow and 46" wide at the base of the transom. It is close to 63 inches at the widest part. I would like to add a casting deck, a spot for a trolling motor and storage space. In addition I would like to add an elevated seat to the middle front. I would love deck designs and tips. The boat comes with a 1986 15HP Johnson outboard and It runs great. FYI I would like to add a kill switch if possible. Does any one know what the maximum weight is for this boat? Should I add foam under the decking? As you can see I have a lot of questions, so anything offered is helpful. Any other suggestions are welcome. [/QUOTE]
