I'm about 90% complete with my Tracker Topper 1436 mod. I took it out the other day and did not enjoy bending over every time I wanted to turn on and redirect my tiller trolling motor. A good fix seems to be a Big Foot switch or something similar (I've read where the T-H Marine switch is...

Sounds like you're in the same situation I was in last year (own boat that needs repair). I'm about 90% done with my mod right now. Mine is a Tracker Topper 1436. A LOT of what I've done I've learned right here at Tinboats! As far as replacing the plywood on the cheap, this is what I would...

Me and a buddy bought a Tracker Topper 1436 last year. We've done quite a bit to it so far and now the front deck is framed up with 2X4s... The plan is to use untreated 3/4" plywood for the front deck platform. Rubber backed carpet has been purchased from Lowe's. I've read on this site where...

I've been working on a Tracker Topper 1436 for the past several months. I took her out for the first time the other day and all felt good, no leaks, etc... Now I'm kicking around some different thoughts on how to prep and finish the floor. I'm seriously thinking about putting some closed cell...

No way am I buying one of these right now. I might buy one at a later date to test... Check out this vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk0suXi7Vtc

The Rustoleum comes in black only. I purchased 1 gallon and 1 spray can at WalMart. Me and a buddy of mine are working on this boat together and trying to do it on the cheap. If you're looking for colors, I would check out https://www.durabakcompany.com/marine.htm or...

To jgp12000... I just rolled the entire inside of my Tracker Topper 1436 with textured Rustoleum bed liner. It turned out nice. 1 gallon was plenty. I used a foam roller and a cheap paint brush for the tight spots. So far so good. It set up well... Hey, I am also thinking about cutting...

Are you applying it to plywood decking?

I've been all over the tin boats site and have found LOTS of great ideas! I'm getting ready to start a Tracker Topper 1436 project and have a question... I really like the idea of rolling on a bedliner product on the inside of the boat. The prep work for this is almost complete. I'm looking...

A buddy of mine has an Eska 9.9 he wants to sell. He said it's been lightly used and runs well (new carb kit just put in). From what I can tell, parts are REALLY HARD to locate if something needs to be repaired. Would it be worth $200 - $250? I'm looking for a used outboard to put on a 1436...

@Daniel My Brother... How has that Tempress storage insert held up for you? I really like that idea and am thinking about sinking a couple in my bench seats. Thanks!

Daniel My Brother - Thanks for the reply! Your boat was one I really liked! Great job! I also appreciate the info on what to do and what not to do. I think I'm convinced at this point to build a lower deck. I flip a lot of jigs and soft plastics so I'd prefer to but up higher. However, I...

Sun-kina, How is your boat fishing? I recently bought a Tracker Topper 1436 and am thinking about doing something very similar. Do you feel like the deck is stable enough at that height? Also, I'm thinking about cutting through my middle bench seat, like you did, for storage options. Did...

New to the board. First off, thanks to everyone for the great information, suggestions, etc. I've learned A LOT so far!!! I just purchased a Tracker Topper 14 with a buddy of mine. We got a great deal on the boat and trailer! I'm in the process of stripping it down and getting in ready to...
