[QUOTE="doxthefox, post: 350233, member: 14053"] Hello Folks, I've been a long time lurker of the forums and finally decided to post. I have been given a 14 foot Crestliner which is in need of some love, but otherwise is in fairly good shape. I have done some research on the forums, and was wondering if this type of boat is suitable for a conversion? I love to fish, and a platform + bowmount motor would make my summer, as well as for a great project. My worry is that the hull is too shallow and may not have decent stability once decked - any advice on my next steps? At the very least I expect I'll replacing the wood, seats, having a look at the transom and doing a full hull and interior paint job. Manufacturer is Nordaican Boats, model Ensign 14. [/QUOTE]
