[QUOTE="riverrat174, post: 314721, member: 11722"] I have had this boat for years, just had it parked getting rotten. Got the itch for a river boat and so i have started on it!!! I have torn the insides torn out and will buff her up a little bit, inside and out. I will add pics as I go. I am pretty much gonna do the same type of build as Dman did with his older boat. I have a few of my own little mods in mind, but will detail as I go. I didn't take before pictures, :cry: , and really wish I would have. O' well. All is well that ends well. Any suggestions are appreciated. I would like ideas on a jet motor for her tho. I had a 35hp Merc that flat out up & died. It got expensive changing out props on the old Merc because the Yellowstone where I fish gets pretty shallow in spots. It was an old stern drive, but I am just going to put a tiller in her. I also plan on painting her inside & out. I wont use it much for Duck/Goose, but if I do, I want to be able to be as incognito as possible!!! Here is one question: What is the easiest way to close all those holes from the bench rivets. I have some ideas, but would like to hear yours. I know now I should have took the benches out & left the outside of the rivet heads in, but I didn't :shock: [/QUOTE]
