[QUOTE="mountainhawk, post: 468046, member: 24870"] I am thinking about doing the same idea for the wheels on a 12' semi v. Something like I have seen on a tbn vid on youtube. There are some bodies of water around me that only allow hand launched craft. I wonder if I can still launch at normal launch ramps with these diy wheels i have seen on this video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yPxoPVVuU3w As far as the holes. My boat had a few holes when I got it. I got some aluminum brazing rods from harbor freight and a blue gas torch and it seemed to patch them up. I also did an epoxy coating to seal all rivets and fill in any pin hole leaks. No leaks on the recent test! For my boat in going to use insulation foam. I can get a 4 x 8 sheet at lows for less then 10. I have seen many youtubers using the pool noodles as well as the insulation foam. I am leaning to the insulation foam under a sub floor to also sound dampen the boat while on the water! I am liking the direction your free jon boat is going! Sounds like it will be far superior to any kayak! [/QUOTE]
