[QUOTE="Adysdaddy, post: 358794, member: 14619"] Well, didn't get as much done over the 4th as I thought, but did get the boat in the water to test for leaks and stability. I don't believe there will be much standing in this thing, but sitting on the buckets, it was very stable. I went ahead and put in a plywood floor and got my hatches cut and hinged. Thinking of doing something else for the floor and vertical sides though. This rig will be hand loaded, so weight is a bit of a factor. I don't have the money for aluminum, but I was thinking of doing some 1/2" foam with FRP for the floor and sides to save weight, anyone done this and care to weigh in? Also, scored a nice 30lb Minnkota Endura Transom mount motor on Craigslist for $40.00 yesterday! [/QUOTE]
