My New Ride

Featured Replies

Bought this 1980 Sears GameFisher 12 ft Jon Boat on Craigslist for $140. Was in pretty rough shape but gave it a new two tone paint job, replaced the transom wood, and used some aluminum epoxy to reinforce some rivets. Then found this 2005 3.3 with only 3 hours on it and was able to pick it up for only $300. Overall I think I got a pretty good deal on the whole setup and plan to use it on the local lakes. Also plan on putting some swivel seats on the bench.

Nice jon. Does not look all that different from my 1446. I have only had it since August and I have put tons of hours on it.

One suggestion I have for it, think about carpeting. Even if you do not deck it. I know down here, when I took mine out first I just had the gas motor, life jackets, and tack in there. In August my grandfather and i went out and scortched the live jehosfefer out of our legs and backsides. That thing got SOO hot. Since I put the decks and more importantly carpeting and seats in, it is real nice.
