    Building a catfish boat

    The start of the SeaDek. I used some IPSC targets I had stacked in the garage to make templates and then cut the pieces out with an Exacto knife and then sanded the edges. I’ll do the benches later.

    Jon boat seating ?

    I got rid of mine and just installed seat post mounts. Without securing them to the bench they pop off easily.

    Building a catfish boat

    I ordered a set of small pods from beavertail. The clearance might be a slight issue so I bought a 7” setback jack plate to push the motor back. I’ll have the pods welded on next week when they arrive. I should have the jack plate mounted on Thursday or Friday after it arrives.

    Building a catfish boat

    Thank you! I took it out today. Unfortunately I didn’t drain the gas out of the carb and it wouldn’t start. I got it home, pulled it apart and cleaned the jets, and now it fires right up. I did use the trolling motor, which worked great! I took my kids and my girlfriends kids out on it with me...

    Building a catfish boat

    Then again, there is still this stuff to put on. Plus a few more tweaks. I actually made the spotlight bracket telescope down today! :D
