'89 Fisher Marine Transformation

I would recommend putting foam between the ribs with anything less that .125. I think the .080 would be fine at first but over time, it would start to sag between the ribs. Also....the space between my ribs was 12".

Thanks for input. I was thinking along those lines and hoping someone would agree with me. Price for both are the same just in two different locations - a extra drive for the .125 but my tin is worth it. I know both sizes are fine but for me personally I would rather over kill it then regret not doing it to fit my needs.

to save a lot of grief and regrets, since you are getting the 0.080" stuff for free, why don't you just use 2 pieces of it, one over the top of the other, that way it will be 0.160 and very sturdy!

I had my carbs rebuilt last week. They were ready Saturday morning and after I put them on, I took the boat out for a joy ride.

With early goose season less than a week away, I had to get busy building my blind. I had a general idea of how I wanted it to work but really built it as I went along. Its built from 3/4 emt and .080 aluminum plate. I made a rain/wind cover for it as well, but didn't put it in.

Sorry the pics are so bad....cell phone camera didn't know what to focus on.

I can easily hunt three guys out of this blind.

Here is one of my spud pols that I made as well. One secures the back of the boat and one on the front.

Slick looking rig. I'd love to have it, minus the console, with a tiller setup. Where are you from? We have 2 weeks for early goose season left here in SC
