[QUOTE="rellis1962, post: 121411, member: 2519"] Just bought a fine Al boat. It is a 1994 Custom Flat 1654. Boat has never been in the water. Boat and trailer are the same age. Boat and trailer has been stored outdoors but has no real adverse effects except some oxidation on the primer and dry rot tires. I am in the planning stage and have several questions. 1. I would like to add a pedestal seat on the front casting platform and maybe a storage hatch. How can I make sure I don't cut into deck support ribs. 2. Live well solutions? 3. Gas can/tank solutions? Bow/Stern? Permanent/portable? 4. Floor material? Thought about aluminum but is expensive. 5. Interior finish? some sort of rubberized spray in Liner (speedliner) is what is currently on my mind. 6. Exterior finish, if any? Someone suggested Perfection paint from Sherwin Williams. I have been looking around the internet and found some good ideas. I am not looking to make this the ultimate fishing vessel, just something functional and convenient. [/QUOTE]
