    Well, I broke the couplink that you screw the garden hose to. So I took it to the car wash. Now she's ready for a new paint job!!

    Depending on your welding skills ( or a friends ) you may be able to construct a bracket that will bolt to the bow. Check out the pic, hope it helps!

    Thanks! Right now I'm trying to clean out the jets in my dads pressure washer. Really old gas, lacquered right up. And doesn't seems to change with sea foam. Other than that, working on buying Parker duck boat paint for a base coat and stencils.

    I ended up not liking the paint job. So i found an old can of mineral spirits, some steel wool. And got to work. Im currently working on getting my dads pressure washer going so i can clean the entire thing. Then ill do a tan colored base coat on the whole boat.

    I whiped up a little jb weld and applied it to a rough seam. The boat floated just fine, i just wanted to reinforce, just in case.

    This is the new transom. Cut it to shape, painted it. Cleaned and primed the boat. Then i bolted it down.

    Hey everyone! I just recently bought a 12 ft. sears jon boat on craigslist and thought itd be cool for everyone to see! I've got most of the fixing already done so you can see all the progress at once. First pic is actually the ad photo from craigslist.
