[QUOTE="80mirrocraft, post: 352153, member: 14162"] so i got this boat last year with the intensions of converting it, i did a lot of research and got this boat dirt cheap. the trailer was junk but it came with a 1978 evinrude 18hp. and i had already found another 14' boat with a foot operated trolling motor, seat mounts, anchor cranks and mint trailer for dirt cheap, so i bought both, took everything i wanted and sold the other and came out basically spending $50 total!
