That stuff is pretty dense, I would think it would be heavier, also, if you were to carpet it, there would be seams I would think where the carpet would settle. If you didnt carpet it, I think it would be pretty slick when wet and could also get pretty hot in direct sun

Thought about that, its just a small small rivet hole though I was amazed at how much water came through it

Thanks, should I use the JB Waterweld or just regular

I have water tested my 12' sears v-hull. There is one leak only that I found. Its a missing rivet. Rather then going through the expense of buying solid rivets, tools and such, is there something I can just fill that rivet hole in with?

I may just have my kids jump on it LOL. No trailer here yet by the way. I now have two boats for a grand total of 50.00 but no trailer LOL

Ill get some pics up when I get it home. You couldnt tell in the pics on craigslist and he took the ad down already

I am picking up a 12' Jon boat tonight for the right price of free!. The guy just has it laying in his yard. wants it out, says it has a slight twist in it, not really evident in the photos. Any advice on how to get a slight twist out of it?

In the process of painting mine brown. Naming it 'Floater"

Thanks

I have a 12' V-Hull Sears 1960 something, not sure, no hull number or anything on it to tell for sure. Its all rivets which all seem to be solid. I want to take the middle seat out put a very very low deck on it with a pedestal seat up near the bow a little more then mid way. Im planning on...

Just wondering what my best set up option would be. 12' Sears Semi-V. Most likely will not have an outboard on the transom, 95% of the lakes here dont allow them so Im looking at electric only. Is the better option Bow mount or Transom Mount with no outboard. Thanks!

After working way too much lately with elections, stripping of paint should commence within the next couple of days.

Im probably going to use the pourable floatation foam in open cavitites to create a greater weight limit. I think one gallon is about 80.00 and it adds 400 to 800lbs I believe

Oh and not carpeting on the seats, they actually feel like fiberglass even though the boat is aluminum

Sorry stupid cell phone pics. My daughter has a great camera, not here this week though. Yes, that is a 1966 Twinsport. I may take you up on your offer, I appreciate it greatly.

Decided to keep the motor. Popped the top off today, everything from what I can tell looks good. Plugs looked brand new. Drained the lower unit oil, that looked good. Going to clean the carb and replace the plugs and fire it up.

Thanks I got it, this is my first outboard and well, maybe I forgot to turn the tiller to shift! :bag:

Not sure what year this is, picked it up with a boat for 50.00. I really havent tried to start it up as of yet but I did try and hit the gear lever and it didnt move. Is this normal? Is it not normal? Was going to fill up the 3 gallon exterior tank and see if I could get it started. Was...
