Navigation light. The boat and trailer was around 4200. i had to pay a premium for shipping to get it here though... sucks.

Paint. yay! =) Second coat, it was applied a lot thicker. masking off, now according to directions. wait 5-7 days to cure fully. That is it for now... Next weekend when the deck is fully cured I will mount the trolling motor and run the wiring that I need in the bow of...

after the deck was sanded and degreased / cleaned. taped / masked. Primed. The hole you see in the deck is where alweld sprays in the floatation foam in the bow of the boat.

Ok this post is going to get picture heavy, but I wanted to show anyone who might be in the same position how I did what I did. and how things looked while I was working on them. I want to add some things on the tuff coat too, will add in my details on working with that product tomorrow. It...

I actually welded some 1.5" x .625 bar in two sections under that mount, I'm going to drill and tap my holes in the base after I mark them from the motor base, and mount the trolling motor that way. This way I don't have to reach the underside.

Ok so I finally heard from my boat dealer. and my jet pump is scheduled ( give or take a day or two) to be here august 8th. So now that it actually feels like I might have a motor in the next three weeks, I kicked my build on. =D> I'm going to try and take a bunch of pictures as I go...

I got a texture sprayer from harbor freight. believe it was around 30 bucks. I got the air compressor one.

I got my ultra tuff in thursday, I get my sprayer in monday... So as of monday, I'll have everything I need to start rigging the front of my boat.... Still waiting on the jet pump from san leandro... bummer...

90/65 for my 1652

Yeah, that stuff doesn't look bad and has some good reviews, It has the light gray color like i would want. and It's not too pricey. Might have a winner! I've went a little crazy and started buying things for my now bare hull... I got a few of the important things, and a few of the not so...

anyone have any comments on an anti skid deck deck cover like herculiner or duabak or the like? I'm thinking I want a simple coating for the decks... bowfishing can get messy. =)

yes i did, I got it with a tiller, the jet pump has shipped for it. it should be in next week.

well i need to carpet the front deck with a different carpet, I wasn't impressed with the carpet I grabbed from lowes, Any suggestions on a good place to buy bass boat carpet or just marine carpet in general? I've thought about rhino / herculiner , what is the general thought on that stuff? It...

If it is taking on a lot of water I would say just have it welded, it really shouldn't cost a whole lot to get it done... I'm pretty sure it would be cheaper to weld that one than to buy a new one.

I got my carpet installed on the front deck yesterday, I slapped an old transom mount trolling motor on and went fishing... Got my first fish in it! Maybe it will be a boat that really catches fish!=) I do plan on going bare foot most of the time. So I Need to figure out how to carpet the...

bought my engine. pump should be here in about a week to ten days... What to do with the spare time? I'm trying to decide what to do with the front deck right now... Carpet or some light gray rhino liner / bed liner

I'm not exactly sure what my boat itself comes out to. But it was 3900 for my 1652 alweld with the 27" transom for the boat and trailer. the only "options" I got was the high transom (27") and the diamond plate bow and corners, other than that, it is a basic boat.

yeah, the only thing i have to compare the torque to is my dads deck boat. I know that with his 150 if the engine is trimmed wrong, if you let go of the wheel it could instantly snap the wheel to the (left or right can't remember) lock. And being in a small river doing this, if i was to ever let...
