[QUOTE="JRZorn, post: 469549, member: 25058"] Just got a duck hunting itch where the next step is a duck boat. I found a mirrocraft with a 9.8 Merc on the back for a decent price. After taking it out on a local river I decided that the bowling alley carpeted floor needed to go. After removing the floor that the previous owner installed the carpet once the floor was in the boat. With 2.5 inch screws where one went through the side of the boat. Then I found when the seats were removed they decided to hot glue I think the empty rivet holes. After all the metal repairs, and new coat of paint. It's starting to take shape. Any feedback, advice would be appreciated. CURRENT REPAIRS/UPGRADES: Random holes and old rivet holes for seat brackets welded New brackets fabricated and welded to interior New paint interior and exterior 18 horse Mercury short shaft New wooden seat benches LED bow and stern lights LED flood lights Fuse block and and gang switch panel for lights New LED trailer lights side marker and tail lamps Completely rewired trailer PLANNED UPGRADES: Removable duck blind Interior green led under seat lighting [/QUOTE]
