Name is Randy and I reside in the S.E. Washington State area at the confluence of the Snake and Columbia River. Locally known as the Tri-cities. Have fished, hunted and enjoyed the outdoors all my life. Legs aren't what they used to be ,so I have given up the hunting. The wife decided last spring that we needed a small fishing boat for Trout fishing up north of town. God I love her. Her logic was the fishing was better at the other end of the lake. We shopped around on Craig's list and found a 1992 13' Smoker Craft Alaskan with a 9.9 Evinrude. Deep, wide and very stable. I was looking for info on the Smoker Craft boat to find answers to questions I had about replacing the 20" transom in which the previous owner cut a notch in it to fit the 9.9 short shaft motor when I came across Tinboats website. Now I want to pull up the flooring and clean out whatever is underneath. Hope some of you will be able to help me. [-o< Thanks, Randy
