[QUOTE="Nickvan, post: 245055, member: 7800"] Good job! That's a lot of work, my friend. I have a '73 Richline. It's a 14, but it only has two seats. Kind of a nice setup for fishing, but you can't put a whole lot of people in it. Bummer :wink: I have a 15 Evinrude for it that I am finally done going through, and I clocked it at 23.5 mph (gps) on the Intracoastal Waterway last weekend. That's me, my nine year old, a bucket of live shrimp, a cooler, three fishing poles, two tackle boxes, three gallons of gas, and all the stuff that the coasties require. Plenty fast for that hull, I think. It came with a bimini that the last owner put on it. He actually cut down a wider top to make it fit because the hull is somewhat narrow. I made new seat lids, too. I got a partial piece of marine ply and I used indoor/outdoor carpet and they came out good. Good luck with your project, and thanks for posting all the photos. I really like mine, though I'm thinking that a low deck forward of the seat will be next. There is no level surface up in the bow other than the little shelf for the anchor.
