jon mod question. This may be silly

[ky_madman]

heck,
Excellent work on the stencils. I may use them to paint my Suzuki Samurai. At any rate, they look great! :lol:

 

[zoeconner]

Heres some updated pics. Almost done. I practiced camo on the trailer. Any tips you may have on painting camo let me know.

 

[phased]

Absolutely Awesome! Wish I had the knowledge and the fortitude to do something like that. I have been following your progress and anxiously waiting for the next step. I have never seen anything like this done before. Please keep posting.

your camo looks great..don't think you need any help,if it's just for the camo look and not hunting it's up to your liking...thats what great about camo,if you want to add alittle more grass stencil after you look at it,you just do it.

Boat's coming along well ! , and I have some questions:

1) Are you going to add anything structural between the seats?
2) Any plans for some floatation foam inside the seats?
3) Adding any knee braces inside the transom?

The knee braces provide support to the transom, especially if you're going to hang a motor on it:

Well here it is. Not complete but floats. Im just glad it does that lol. I hope by the end of the weekend it will be painted so we can put on the deck. The guy in the picture is Mike. He was the first to try it out.

 

[phased]

Man that looks GREAT! I bet it's stable too. The pic with Mike standing to one side looks like the boat is still level in the water (no lean). Look forward to seeing your progress.

 

[Waterwings]

Cool! 8)

 

[Zum]

even with decks that boat should be stable
can't wait to see it decked and painted
you should do alittle video after to show us how stable it is

 

[Mossy535]

Looking great zoe! Can't wait to see how your creativity and talent play out in the finished product.

[zoeconner]

Can anyone through me some ideas on how I should deck this boat? Im probably going to use 2 x 4's to frame it. I think???

 

[Waterwings]

If affordable, why not go ahead and use aluminum angle for the deck support framing and put an aluminum deck in

 

[Bubba]

That's Awesome! And I have to agree...thats probably the first 1252 jonboat ever! =D> Can't wait to see it with the deck and all.

 

[bAcKpAiN]

We are not worthy of this mod!! That has to be the best mod I have ever seen, and Mike has some guts! =D>

 

[seaarc]

Congrats Zoe it floats. =D> =D> =D> =D> Now time to pimp that lil barge.
