riveted alumacraft with a jet?

[JoshKeller]

yeah, i believe i'll sell the alumacraft and put the money in the bank until i kill the fisher, then buy a new one. just hard to use a perfectly good shaped bottomed boat when i know ill dent and tear it up. I want to get something more open than the alumacraft and set up as a stick steer, and really dont want to cut or tear out the middle bench and redo the decks.

my 1648 is open with a small from deck and just the bench in back.I did in fact take out the middle bench with no regrets

my build thread is "my idea for a jet jon build" on the second page of jet threads. I used a 2012 1648 mv alumacraft riveted and it works great. I've ran it up on dry sandbars, banks, logs, and rocks sometimes at almost wide open throttle the river I run gets low you either have to get after it or stay home and watch tv. It works good and it being light weight helps when I do get stuck.
