Cool Just Piddlin

Bought this boat about 3 weeks ago for my boys to take to our camp, Its a 14' Weldcraft w/ a 15 Tohatsu 4 stroke. While I'm out of town working I stay in my camper so this little project gives me somthing to do in the evenings. 1st picture is what it looked like when I bought it. Had old 1/2" plywood screwed to the front deck & 3/4" plywood in the floor. A good cleaning & a few goodies like carpet, pedastal seats & mounts extended back deck with storage & aereated live well New wiring all run under the ribs & alot of beer She's good to go! Had fun fixing this lil dude up.

All wood was coated in fiberglass resin.

Good job bro! I got a few holes now that we could drop that thing in. We have been wearing the sacs and bass out not far from your house. 3 beautiful lakes but you got to have a 4x4 to launch. I know you got a few of them laying around too!

Yeah!!!!!! Them new seats, seat post, base plates, carpet, glue, marine plywood, paint, fiberglass resin, hinges, latches, stainless screws, aerator, wiring, wire connectors. I think I have as much in material as what I paid for the boat & motor!
