all projects updated in the first post! :beer:

If I missed one or want to add yours, post JUST the link here and I will get to it.

If your project is a work in progress and you have not done anything to it in awhile (money, Weather, no time) Please at least update your post so the readers know you have not fallen off the planet.


Also if you come along an old post with the pictures/links missing, send me a PM so I can either try to fix it or remove it. I don't want this resource to become stale.

Thanks Guys! :beer:
 
samzerelli's 1649 flat bottom overhaul
https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=24921
 
Hey Guys,


Just bought a smoker craft 14 footer for $330 bucks with a Chrysler Force 15hp outboard from the late 70's also... The trailer is pretty much junk and I though about fixing it up but by the time i put all the time and money in it, i probably could of got a new one for the same price.... So i decided to get a new one from Northern Industries which is made for 14 foot boats and has a weight capacity of 600 pounds... So I dont have to worry about my boat flying around on the highway. Anyway, I decide not to sand and paint it this year, I have no space in the garage and it would take to long. I would miss some great fishing days too. I use some permanit sealer on the front bow seam and siliconed the side seams and back seams... Hopefully this will last the year. I filled the boat with water before i sealed it to makesure there were no major issues with leaks.... which there wasn't but we will see when i put it on the water for the first time..I power washed the boat which really cleaned it up, its been sitting in a backyard upside down for a couple years so you can imagine the dirt on it...

As you can see from the first photo i took out the two benchs for the mean time and plan on put the back on back on after i clean the bottom of the boat and checked for leaks... After that I sealed it with permanite sealent and sillicone marine grade sealent... What is nice is the brackets rivoted to the boat is going to help with the installation of the floor and casting decks in the front and back....


I put the front deck in this weeknd and worked on the back deck tonight just got to dark to take any photos, but the front bow deck is coming out ok..... Any suggestions for extra supports or is it good to go? I plan on puting lacker on the wood framing when im doing framing the whole boat.....
