Ballistik Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 Well I started yesterday and tore the floor out and got some grinding done. Got too cold so I hade to quite. Its only 5 degrees here in MI. Quote
bassboy1 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Good work so far. I absolutely hate grinding fiberglass, and I absolutely hate cold weather. Better you than me. ;D Quote
tkite16 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 I just finished doing the same to my boat . You'll love the deck extention. I made mine into a tackle locker. Once you get the floor back in it goes pretty quick. Here is before and after from mine http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1200504729/0 Quote
jasone Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 For some reason, that boat looks familiar. Glad to see you are getting around to that floor replacement. I hope the redneck engineered braces didn't give you too much trouble. J Quote
Ballistik Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 Yes Jason its yours. Ya the floor I had to add some bracing to to make it through the summer but it made it. Now its time to fix it. The motor was flawless except the reverse issue. ITs started every time with out any issues what so ever. I plan on extending the deck back about 2 feet to add more casting area. I still think it was a wonderful deal. I will keep posting as I do more. Quote
BASS fisherman Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 That looks just like my 1981 Hydro sport bass boat. I may need some advice once it warms up a bit. The floor in my boat needs replaced as well. Nice work so far! Quote

Ballistik Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 There is enough water on top of the ice to just about float a boat. This weather sucks. I hate Michigan winters. :'( Quote
