THE CRABBING MACHINE

[rutnstrut]

Just a little project i was working on for two months. My boat is a 1987 14 ft Grumman GFS deep v bottom. I completely stripped the boat down removed a stickers, sanded and primed inside and out. I painted the boat with two coats of Parker's Duck boat paint in hunter green. I rhino lined the interior bottom of the boat, for a no slip texture. I added three new camo swivel seats, w/ brackets, new stern, bow lights, new bilge pump and a new battery box w/ toggle switches and all new wiring inside conduit to run my electronics. I added a front spot light and a trot line prop stick. After the crabbing season i plan on framing out the front to add a storage area for equipment and decoys. I plan on adding camo swamp grass stencils for duck season. I installed new bearings, races and new tires with rims, new gunnel strap and last but not least a new trailer waterproof cover. My crabbing machine will be powered with a 15 hp Johnson short shaft. sorry for the size of the photo's, i tried to in large, but the system would except them.

Can you increase the size of your pics? Would love to see the paint job. I am interested in that color for my tin. Like to see your mods you have made also.
