[QUOTE="Leelatt, post: 313472, member: 7127"] got all of the destroyed parts of the boat fixed, went with thompson's water seal instead of the spar urathane, only 1 coat needed and after 3 days of leaving a decent size puddle of water on a test board, it didn't soak in so I'm feeling good about switching. installed cup holders, repainted all of the interior compartments and installed the 2nd fish finder. one major problem though, with the 15hp motor on the back and just me sitting back there, the water level is 4 inches below the top of the transom, I'm worried about this, that the boat could easily be swamped. I'm thinking about getting the beavertail float pods but not sure if the small pods will fit the boat and allow the motor to have full range of movement. any suggestions? I plan to get some pictures up this weekend after I take the boat out for a day trip. [/QUOTE]
