Hi the name is John and live in Calif just north of LA in Ventura County I have been lurking for a bit looking at ideas and learning. Had a good idea of what I wanted to do with a small aluminum boat, But this site has helped in a big way refining my Ideas. Thank you all for the poached Ideas :wink:
I was given a 12 foot aluminum boat by a friend that knew I was looking around. The boat as I got it was in rough shape all the wood is bad! But the boat itself is in great shape.
Tell me what you think!
I have cleaned it up a bit!
Fitting new wood for the Benches before paint!
A couple of coats of paint on the inside of the hull and she is looking like a usable boat again!
I want to make her a little lake boat for Bass fishing and Hooping for Bugs at the break wall. So she needs to be versatile Salt and freshwater. The size is perfect because I need to park the boat in the garage. We live in a Townhouse and there are HOA regs Bla Bla Bla
Next I need to find a 4-5 hrs four stroke , then a steering console and motor controls
