G3 conversion

[jamesn]

I wanted to expand the usability of my older G3 1548DK. I am content with my conversion.

See added: 45lb Minn Kota
cover over tank and rear battery
rod box (extended into the front step/deck)
fabricated "pods"
4" setback/jackplate
sprayed on bed liner

Looks good.

Did you weld the pods on yourself?

Hello. These pods were fabricated from 1/8" plate and installed by a local shop. I took dimensions to shop and they agreed to match online cost ($300.)
Fellow said he would not do another at that cost. They DO as advertised; would not own another aluminum boat without them.

(I always mention the original engine (2006) Yamaha F25 developed a moderate sized corrosion hole in the water jacket top left block by upper piston...dealer said that he had not seen in his 31 years working in the boat business.)

Thanks..
