    Fishheads project!

    First let me say I know this boat is a Smokercraft however when I was trying to order my stickers my wife told me I should get some Lund stickers because I've always wanted one but without work right now its WAY on the back burner. I thought it would be a funny/nice touch to all my hard work. I...

    Input please...

    I like the set-up. The only thing I can suggest is if you make a cooler/livewell just make sure you leave room for it. Im making mine portable so I can add it when I need it. Other than that looks good =D>

    Fishheads project!

    I painted it with a foam roller, however the boat has its share of dings in it. If the boat was nice and dent free I would have sprayed the rustolem through a gun. The jeep in the background I painted with a gun and it turned out awesome. You just need to thin it with laqure thinner. I want to...

Im going with Smokercraft in the middle of the sides and on the back of each side it will have the model... 1425 SS...

    Question about StrongTies

    I couldn't find them at HD. I had to get mine from Lowes and at that they were in the section with deck spindles and not the rest of the 2x hangers.

    My outboard motor collection.

    Hey bassboy, I live in Mi. and every spring our county has a sping clean up where you can put everything out by the road. I found my two motors that way. One is a Champion and the other it a Scott Atwater. I've been going through the atwater.

I was busy today so I finish it up in the morning. I can only suggest to anyone that is going to use...

    Fishheads project!

    I painted the boat with good ol' rustolem and a sponge roller. I have a jeep I take in the mud/2 track with it and that is painted with the same thing and it holds up great. I swear by it!!!!! I could not decide on blue/grey, red/silver, or hunter green/light tan.Im going to put the carpet in...
