Welcome Aboard , and nice rig! I know exactly where Sheperdsville is! We lived in Hillview before moving here in '96. Were you there in '96 when the tornado took out part of Pioneer Village?

 

[CHILIDWG]

No I wasn't here. I just moved to Shepherdsville a couple years ago.

Heres My New Favorite Toy!! Its A 1978 MonArk 1644p I bought her for 600 bucks on craigslist and only had to drive a mile to pick her UP!!

So Far I pulled up the front deck removed the am fm speaker box and humming bird sonar And Cleaned and filled 3 55 Gal Trash can liners and havent eve got it started to look good!! I havent even washed her yet(its raining). Motor runs great but i need a steering cable. I plan on paint and carpet but I believe Im going to raise the front deck about 4 inches and bring it back to the front of the console for more casting deck and storage.
ANY ADVICE OR INPUT IS WELCOME

Im going to go through the Boat, and trailer this winter.
Here She is!!

WOW what a deal! nice find

 

[jasonr95]

nice rig, my brother had one just like it years ago.

 

[KyMonArker]

A few more pics of my $600 wonder!! If you guys have any more Ideas on some mods I can do!! Id like to raise the front deck about 4 more inches but with a 44 in bottom I dont want her to be tippy. By the way shes 5ft6in wide on the back deck and almost 5 ft wide where the front deck ends. Would that help if I wanted to put a taller front deck on it?

 

[Henry Hefner]

There is one perfect way to find out. Find some scrap lumber that will span from lip to lip, put the boat in the water, put on your life vest, and walk from side to side on your makeshift deck. You are the only one who can decide if you think it is too "tippy". I think mine is great like it is, but would hate it with a deck to the top, but I have seen others like mine with decks all the way up and the owners like them just fine.

Maybe I am wrong. Maybe your boat isn't sitting level. But...to me it looks like you should move this pin out a hole maybe even two.

 

[KyMonArker]

you are correct sir! Its not setting level but it does need to come out a hole or so. Thanks for pointing that out! See Im learning from you guys!!!!!

its been pretty Rainy and chilly here in NE Kentucky but I bet ive made a million trips to the boat since Ive found this site!! lol!! Wearing anything from a pair of Skivy Drawers to a pair of coveralls with a tape measure and flashlight!! Livin in the hollar is too awesome!!

 

[CHILIDWG]

Wow they do look alot alike!! Let me know if you have any questions. I'm new at this too, but I might be able to help. I'm glad to see another one on here.
