This is a jon boat I once owned, gave to a friend, then came back for a second chance. Although she is very rough (sat outside for 5+years), I have made a promise to make her over into a small water fishin machine!!!LOL

Like always the road to recovery is a long one, so wish me luck.

When I'm done I'll post pics of the "process"

good luck

You have your work cut out for you....

You have your work cut out for you....

To say the least..........but she's all I've got for now so on the project goes

Looks like she's got a lot of potential there. Good luck!! Shoot us some photos when as yo ugo. I love seeing the transformation.

With a little hard work, you'll have it looking better than new. It has potential. Keep us posted on your progress.

I wouldn't change a thing

From what you have to this:

Beats beating the banks, good luck, you will do fine.

A sheet and a half of plywood, some indoor/outdoor carpeting, two pedistal seats, and a trolling motor with a battery is all she needs.  SWEET!!!

Raul, that is a nice rig.

My plans are simple:

Decking for the front and sides with gray carpet

Mettalic silver paint to match my truck

Tiller style trolling motor (still to buy)

One pedestal seat(still to buy)

5 horse motor

At some point I would like to buy a trailer for it.

I am still in the paint prep stage,I will post some pics later .

Looks like a good start to me.

Have fun, don't give up an imagine what the end result will be.

A BASS fishing machine.

memo

Good Luck and have fun doing it try to think out of the box. It is easier to wire it now then after you frame it out and deck it.

From what you have to this:

d**n! thats cool !!

what type of boat is that?

Have fun with it!

Carbon fiber seagull wing bottom hull, reason why it comes equipped with a 15 HP even though it 's only 12 ft. But you can do that with a 12 ft jonboat with a 10 HP.  

Hey dadto4

I have a boat similar to that but mines 14' and the bench in the middle is actually a huge livewell, when you post pics will you put some detailed ones of how you deck it?  I want to deck the front of mine but not sure how to get started.  Thanks
