Posted this in my build thread but haven't heard anything...As far as aluminum angle goes, should I be getting 6061 structural or 6063 architectural? I've seen people use both. I'm leaning towards 6063 as it would be easier to rivet together, but is 6061 with the added strength what I should be...

Well, got the boat last July and have slowly been accumulating things for it over the past 9 months or so and am just now getting ready to start working on it. Finally! Anyways, with the weather warming up for at least a couple days up here in Michigan, I got started on some work that needed...

I have the opportunity to buy a brand new 15hp Nissan 4 stroke electric start boat motor from work for about $1200 8) . Problem is, I'm not sure how this motor would fit with my 1436 jon boat. I'm sure the 15hp would be overkill, but it's such a killer deal that I'm having a hard time passing...

There is a guy on CL that is selling a 1752 lowe roughneck for only $1700. I'm not all that familiar with this boat and am having a hard time finding information on it online. Seems like a really nice, solid boat. Just looking for some insight on if this is a good buy or not. Thanks!

does this seem like a good deal? I'm thinking it is, i just don't know much about this boat and can't find any info online. Thanks to anyone that can give me more info on this... boat is listed here: https://jxn.craigslist.org/boa/2026088993.html

Looking at this boat on CL. Owner says it is a 15ft jon boat and 48in wide. No idea what the manufacturer is, which is where I'd like some help. I'm trying to decide if it's a good buy, ($600 for the boat, trailer, and 9.9 outboard). I currently own a 1436, but want something bigger, but am...

I own a 1436 jon boat and have been looking for a bow mount trolling motor to put on it. I can get good deals on stuff at work from time to time and this is one of those times. I can get a Minn Kota 70 PowerDrive V2 Motor, the one at that link (54" Powerdrive V2). I ask if it is overkill...

Does anyone here have this motor? Just wondering how the reliability of it is. I have the opportunity to buy one that is brand new, I'm guessing a 2010 model, for around $1700-$1800 from work (Cabela's). It's "used", the customer bought it didn't want it and returned it, so it's never been...

Picking up this trailer tomorrow that I'm getting off of craigslist. The guy just repainted it, put on brand new tires, regreased the bearings, has bearing buddies, put in new wiring/lights, all for 250...so I'm happy with all that. I've got a 1436 lowe jon boat I'm going to be putting on...

Been checking on craigslist for a trailer for the boat I just bought, and came across this one here for only $100. Not the best looking, but for the price I'm hoping it would get the job done. Can anyone tell me for sure that I could make this work with a 14' jon boat? Listing says that it...

This will hopefully be where I post some of my ideas of what I'm going to end up doing with this boat. Also, I'm looking for some input as I really don't have any experience in boat mods... Anyways, there was a tornado a month back at the Cabela's store that I work at which banged up all of...
