[QUOTE="wwcenturion, post: 321927, member: 11760"] Well guys, I sold Lil' Fisher last week and purchased a full grown (glass) bass boat. I just couldn't help it. I got out several times on my tin and loved it but wanted the convenience of hopping right in and driving off to fish. A very nice older gentlemen just down the road purchased her. He told me it was becuase I had documented everything so well on Tinboats as the reason for purchasing it without haggling on the price. I did take a $500 loss on the project but the experience was well worth it. In addition, I think I lost about 10lbs working on my tin, so win-win for me. I am almost positive I will have another tin boat project in the not too distant future because every time I pass by one in someone's yard I just have to look at it. Just yesterday when I was out at the boat launch in my new boat there was a couple youngsters in a v-hull trying tirelessly to get their 72' Rude going. I shouted over some advice and they were able to get it going. I do hope that I am not ostracized from the TinBoats community as I would like to stay an active member. I also would like to leave my project up for others to see so I can answer any questions or give advice when needed. Lastly, I want to thank all the great people on here for the advice and camaraderie. Cherokee, I am still up for getting together if you can throw something together in the future. I will just hitch a ride on your boat if I don't already own another by then. Please stay safe brother. [/QUOTE]
