[QUOTE="BLKLAB, post: 272999, member: 9391"] Hello everyone. I have been looking around the site for awhile. I'm ready to start my first build. I got a good deal on a 1984 Fisher Marine Netter 16' Deluxe. It's 16' long with a 48" flat bottom. Has a Mod V front. It has a 1971 Evinrude 18HP Fastwin outboard and a 2005 Minn Kota 55lb thrust trolling motor. Its sitting on a 1984 Rolco trailer. I'm looking to transform it into a nice river boat. It will be used primarily for getting to and from the duck blind, with the occasional joy ride and bowfishing. Had it out in the water and no leaking that I noticed. Outboard runs good but I may upgrade to a new (or newer) 25HP at some point. Trolling motor works good as well but I may leave it off. I'm looking to paint or finish the trailer with bedliner in black. Check and replace wiring as needed. And anything else needed. Finished look for boat would be black inside with a floor, maybe pods in the back with a fuel tank and battery compartment. Would like a nice deck up front and a middle bench.
