[QUOTE="jparrishbt, post: 372118, member: 15701"] Hi, this is my first post on this site and finding it very helpful on my recent project boat just picked up. It is a older model Fisher Marine 12' flatbottom that I picked up for $250. I have a 6hp Evinrude Fisherman that I plan to put on the back of the boat. So far here is my list of to-do's. Any help and input would be appreciated. I am new to this boat but have had several jon boats. This is the first that gets a makeover. List: -Trolling motor/ battery -removable front deck (want all decks made out of metal) -Removable rubber flooring -Complete Camo paint job - Reinforce transom -Upgrade motor to 8-10hp -New lift handles -Bedliner tops of seats where carpet is for slip-proof. -keep same paint over bedliner. -lights -basic fishfinder for water temps. I am sure I will want to do more but this is it so far. I have found a motor in San Diego next time I go up. It is a 2004 Mercury 8hp with warranty for $200. :D [/QUOTE]
