    Reed's 1542 Alumacraft Swamp Sled.

    Thats a great score. I wish my boat was as wide as yours. Being able to have 2 seats side by side would be cool.

    First Jon Boat.

    I was Pretty lucky with that. I've probably only spent $20 so far and that was on some fittings. I made the livewell at work with some stainless we had that we couldn't use because it was scratched on 1 side. The stainless would have been around $60 for the piece I used. So with tank, pump...

    Ya, I actually got the idea of removing the middle seat from you. You got yourself a nice boat there. As for paint, I've got to wait for it to warm up abit.

    Thanks. Its alittle shallower than I'd like but i'm happy with it. Ya, that is the overflow and it is abit higher,. I cut the wrong size hole for the overflow so what I'm going to do is run a 90 angle up on a 45 to raise the aerator line. Should work.

    First Jon Boat.

    Finally I got sometime to get some work down on the boat this week so I tackle the livewell. I cut out the hole in the back seat where I'm going to put the livewell. I had some spare time at work so I decided to make up my livewell. I made it out of stainless steel. Here is a pic after I...
