Post a Pic of your boat!

That Lund matches your SUV real nicely....or did it happen the other way around? :lol:

Hey all, how's it going? I've been a "lurking member" since I got my boat in October and have finally found the time to post pics of it.

Here are the boat's stats:

Manufacturer: Ouachita
Model: ??? (if anyone has any info on Ouachita models, etc. I'd welcome you sharing)
Year: 1970
Length: 12'
Beam: 64"

This is my first boat (yeah!, finally!) and I absolutely love it! I didn't buy it, I traded the owner two quads for it (both Honda 200FX's, an '87 and an '88. He told me that it was his dad's boat, and he and his brother restored it just before their dad died. Its been sitting in a barn for the last 10 years! Generally speaking it's almost 'leak free', after 3-4 float tests I've found that it takes on about 2 cups of water/hour. Definitely something that I have to fix, but I think I'll wait until the end of the season.

Anyway, thanks for checking it out, I hope ya'll like it as much as I do.

Love your boat!

Me too, that thing is super clean!

Jim, BaitCaster, & Rat,

Thanks ya'll! She is quite a clean craft and I'm glad that my first boat is in such good condition...I've found that even small boats take a fair amount of $$ to get them to where you want them (or even 1/2 way there for that matter).

Hopefully ya'll can guide me with the mods that I want to do. The first order of business is to update the battery navigation lights that came with the boat (rotten due to the age of the plastic) with new wired ones, and new hubs/spindles for the 1963 home-built trailer (the current wheels have to be dissembled completely in the event of a flat...yeeech...that can really put a damper on a weekend camping/fishing trip!).

Thanks again everyone, I'm glad that I found this site and finally quit lurking and started posting!

Just got this the other day, I haven't had it on the water yet, hopefully Thursday I'll get it on. I plan on running all weekend long and catching plenty of fish. I am new to this site, and I love it. Thanks everyone for all of the great ideas and info, this site is awesome.

Nice lookin' rig WaterDog67!

What are the stats on the boat, looks to be about 14'-16', right?

 

[WaterDog67]

Yep it's a 14' 1965 Richline with a 2006 9.9 Mercury, I haven't even had it on the water yet, and it's killing me. I think I'm going to call in sick today and take her out.

 

[Ictalurus]

Here it is, glad to be finished and start my fishing season. Better late than never

Great job on the mod. Looking forward to seeing some in-water pics!

My 40's era (I think) Aero Craft 12' Row Motor boat ! I need help in nailing down the exact year model, but I think it is a VERY EARLY one...maybe 46-47 year model. Any help would be appreciated. I have the original dash plaque still in the boat. [email protected] (980)581-0006

 

[azekologi]

nautiquefanatic - Absolutely gorgeous! I love the older tins.

What are your plans for her?

This isn't my boat, but it's the exact same floor plan minus the speakers. I'll try and get some better pictures this weekend of the boat.
