Super User Jimzee Posted September 3, 2007 Super User Posted September 3, 2007 You done a real good job restoring that boat. Carpet looks nice and floor hatch is well done. Be proud!!! Quote
Team_Dougherty Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Great job. well done. I am amazed at some of the work I have seen on here. Quote
fishingfourfun Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 Great job! It makes me want to make upgrades (put wood flooring) in my modified v hull! Quote
MattStrykul Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 Nice~! I think you could have decked above the seats, but I guess better be safe than sorry Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted December 7, 2007 Super User Posted December 7, 2007 Yikes! I was 2 years old when that thing was made. Good luck! SO was my mom LOL ;D Great job on the boat, I am sure you will get many enjoyable hours of fishing from her. Quote
farmpond1 Posted December 7, 2007 Posted December 7, 2007 It certainly sounds like you're in the right occupation for the task at hand. Surely you know some jet engine mechanics who can help out. Mount some turbofans on that baby! Quote
Tokyo Tony Posted December 7, 2007 Posted December 7, 2007 Wow, amazing work there. I have to admit, when I saw your first couple of pictures I wasn't too impressed :-? But now that baby is beautiful ;D I would have no idea where to start with a project like that :-/ And one more different smiley for good measure :-* Quote
fisherdave Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 Man you did a great job on that thing I am very impressed. Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted December 8, 2007 Super User Posted December 8, 2007 Man that thing look awesome. I'm very impressed. Quote
bowtech_182 Posted December 8, 2007 Author Posted December 8, 2007 I'm hoping that santa gets me a couple seat bases , a leaning seat for up front and a regular seat for back. Next week also comes a rod locker. Quote
Bass XL Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 man you did a really great job on that...way to go....now if only i could do that to a boat :-/ Quote
maxke01 Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 What kind of paint did you use on this? Looks awesome! Quote
bowtech_182 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Posted February 8, 2008 What kind of paint did you use on this? Looks awesome! It is Mil-spec aviation polyurethane gray with an epoxy zinc chromate primer. Quote
PDB Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Bowtech, you did an amazing job with that boat. I wish I had the skill to do boat restoration, that would be a kick. I'd love to do one of those late 50's early 60's fiberglass "batboats" with the big fins on the back. Quote
