ADD: This thread is VERY dangerous for my savings account and driveway space... especially this time of year when I can't fish because the fresh water around here is frozen. I have enjoyed the yak this past season. I know the struggle is real, I've bought a Helix 5 SI, RamTransducer arm, Ram Helix mount, and hardware to mount it all, and I also just recieved my Feelfree Uni Bar Dashboard.Now I can mount my Helix 5 SI and phone to take pics right in front of me... So yes the winter is tough on the wallet. I'll be updating this thread with the new set up. Quote
WPCfishing Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Crazy good weather in RI. No ice so I put the canoe in the water to get a feel and look, this is the first time in the water since the restoration. The motor was bogging above mid throttle but the canoe was all that I expected. We rebuilt the carb a few days ago and the motor is running great now. It's been cold for a couple days so I'm not sure when I'll get out on the water again. I'll keep busy with the additions to the canoe while I wait for April weather. 1 Quote

DaileyLimit Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 2014 Jackson Kilroy in "Green Hornet" color scheme. I made a floor for it out of lexan, an old bar mat, and my wife's yoga mat (not pleased). 5 Quote
Mikey314 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 WPCfishing, yeah i have updated the boat a bit, but im not sure about a gas one, but i am gonna start off with a trolling first. Quote
mundell88 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 This is my 14ft flatbottom. I drug it out of the weeds and bought it from a guy that hadn't fished out of it in years. It leaked terrible and all the wood was rotten. New transom, some silicone and some flex-seal lol and it don't leak anymore. I built the casting deck out of 2×4s and old aluminum road signs. Yeah its red neck. This is a picture I took of my brother and his friend fishing out of it. 12 Quote
River Dave Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 I'm surprised there's not more guys running similar setups, seems to be either bass boats, johnboats, or kayaks with very little in between. This is my "compromise" ride. It's a great all around family boat for riding, tubing, cruising etc that I outfitted with a removable casting platform in the bow and a quick release trolling motor. I can go from fishing mode to "dad" mode in less than a minute so it's just perfect for me. This is the third boat I've rigged like this and really got it right this time. It's a '98 Bayliner Capri 1950 with a 140 Mercruiser. Bought it two years ago from a local guy who had it since new and never used it. He ran a limo company and it would sit in the garage with the limos and only got used once or twice a year. The boat is 17 years old and looks almost brand new. I love it. Quote

I just upgraded my hull this year to a 1648 Grizzly and love it. I havent carpeted it yet because I may go with hydro turf but i love the simple lay out of the boat. I am also thinking about upgrading to the terrova with iPilot. I want the spotlock features and stuff the ipilot comes with but i like the better control capabilities that come from the cable drive i have now. How do you like that terrova? If i could figure out how to make my pictures under .15mb then i would post pics of mine. 2 Quote

I actually have waterproof foam mats that go in the middle part of the floor as well. Just not in that pic. Maybe this week I will get a fully updated pic with front transducer and middle mats. I like the Terrova for the spot lock. I do not like the stow method of it, and hope someday they will come out with an easier way, not the ulterra though. Haha. As far as pics, upload them to the gallery on here, or to a hosting site and it will be a non-issue. Jeff 1 Quote
fishonfire Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 Awesome thanks for the help. Here is mine its a 1648 Tracker Grizzly. It may not be the nicest one on here but it fullfills the many roles I ask of it and its brand new and all mine. LOL. 3 Quote
