Looking good. Is this motor a tiller style motor? I need to get back on mine soon, Big deck is replaced, now I need to cut the front deck.

What size are the hatches? Again, Thanks

I just started my Tracker V Guide Special too. The deck was rotted very bad. I have the 1989 Tracker with a 25hp Evinrude 2 stroke, but looks just like your boat. For the front lower deck 5 3" x 4, I used the old deck as a pattern. I cut, and needless to say, it didnt fit very well. Was not...

Let me know if you find a boat graveyard pleae, I live in Lewisville, north of DFW

Hey can you post pictures of the finished product? Where did you get the aluminum to raise the front deck? Thanks!!! Ron

Kind of off topic, but I just got a 1965 12 foot Sea King Friday. Do you by chance know the weight limits? Thanks in advanced, Ron

Thanks, sure makes a BIG difference on the lake.

A couple of pictures, not the greatest, but I think you will see. Unfortunatly the boat on the water is not possible since I go out alone, and I am inside the boat.

Hey All, I finally got these mounted and wow what a difference. The brackets are mounted just behind the center bench, as high up as possible. I couldn't find aluminum wide enought so I chose a galvanized flat plate used for electrical boxes, 1.36 each. They are larger than the bracket and...

Do you have it? ***Yes I have my 22 Foot pontoon and also my 1032 Jon boat covered. Why? ***I got my Jon boat at a great price, as well as the motor. Total cost for Boat (2007 Alumnacraft), Trailer, 2001 3.3HP Mercury motor, 30lb trolling Motor, LARGE Deep Cycle Batteryfor about $400 after...

Good analysis. First, the pivot point is serated on the top, so each time you make an adjustment, and tighten, the teeth renegage from the top. I found many that used say more of a pressure and a small notch inside the pivot point, but was concerned for the same reasons you have deduced...

I sure will, I am hoping to get rid of that "tipsy" feel. I will also post pictures :) This is my second boat, I have a 22 ft 2009 Avalon Pontoon I bought last year, but this boat is so much easier to get out for a 2-3 hr fishing trip.

I have the same bracket for my seat on my 1032 Jon Boat. I also caught a great deal on an umbrella at Costco, it is large and has a secondary umbrella, that will pass wind thru. I also hope to finish installing this on my Jon boat. Ron

I got the floats from Amazon, 2 for 14.99. They are lobster floats. (Total - $30.00) (Living in the Dallas Area, I am landlocked, so it was a chore to find these.) I bought anodized flag pole brackets from Lowes, 10.00 each. (Total - $20.00) <--this was the biggest challenge, but alas I found...

Wow that is awesome, Congrats!!! Thanks for sharing :mrgreen:
