I've just started putting my floor in as well and I'm using 7/16". In the rough fit it seems to hold up fine and I don't even have the foam between the ribs yet. I don't know how far apart your ribs are, I haven't measured mine either, but in a 58" run I have 5 ribs.

On my buddy's TM, mine also, the pin fits in a groove on the back of the prop and the prop is secured with a plastic wing nut. As far as only been for 36V motors I haven't seen anything and I did find one for my old MK 35W, which is a 12V. But like you said russ010 it might run your battery down...

Once you figure the size you need you should get a die-cast aluminum one. My buddy bought one after busting two props in one year, and it works great. He uses a shear pin just in case he catches a log the pin will break instead of the TM, and he carries extra pins with him. I found one to fit my...

I haven't used it myself, I haven't even put my deck i yet, but I used to work in a mill that covered plywood with veneer. We covered 3/4" OSB every so often and IMO that stuff is junk. It gets wet it crumbles, drop it or drop something on it it breaks, and it's just plain out heavy. I could...

I've only been in a side console a couple of times and never been in a center console. But if I had to choose I'd proably go with the center console for the fishing room on both sides. My buddy that has the side console says he wish he would've gotten a center console instead. Just weigh your...

My 1636 flat bottom has a metal brace from the floor to the transom, it was built with it, and the transom board was a 1" piece of plywood, but I have to replace it. I also have a '68 20 Hp Johnson, I haven't run it yet but my dad used to when he owned the boat, and the transom never had any...

Alright, I haven't done much of anything so far. Weather won't permit and neither will the budget right now. I have been making my plans and coming up with ideas. But I would like to get some advice on where to put my battery and fuel tank. When my Pop had the boat he would put the battery in...

I knew a guy who painted his Jon with tractor paint. It's a hard enamel and is also flexible. I haven't talk to him much, since I used to work with him, to see how it was holding up. I will try and get a hold of him to see how it's going and let you know.

I decided to start this to show my progress, get advice, and bounce ideas off yall. Here is a link to an album of my progress https://photobucket.com/GTC1636JonBoatMod. I will post when I add new pics to it and let yall know what I've done. But as for now I have a question for yall. I'm trying...

I was thinking the same thing about the passenger Cheeseball. I was also thinking that I could put my tackle box in the hole and won't have to worry about opening a hatch when I need something or looking for it, just lean over and pick up the whole box. Thanks for the compliment on my Jeep Andy...

I appreciate all the advice so far but I also can't decide on the size of my front deck. I'm not sure if I want to go from the little factory deck to the end of the bench or stop short of the bench to leave leg room like this:

Finally got a break in the rain and got out to get a pic of the boat so yall can give me advice on what to do with it. I got the boat off the saw horses, flipped it over, got a pic made, and it started to rain again. So I still don't get to paint it, sucks because now all I can do is sit around...

Yeah, I think it's supposed to stop this weekend but I've heard that before. It was real nice and pretty last week when I stripped it out and pressure washed it inside and out, but when I need nice weather I can't even buy it.

I'll post some pics once it stops raining, been raining for a week straight now, and I can get out to take a few. I agree with keeping the middle open for a lower level and plan on putting a floor only there. I was planning on keeping the deck at the top of the bench since I can't really go over...

I recently obtained a 1636 Rhyan Craft flatbottom Jon boat from my pop. I got a great deal, two fish findrs, '68 20hp Johnson, 17lb thrust Minn Kota 35w, trailer, seats and other junk cost me about $0.00. I'm redoig the floor and rebuilding the deck but I can't decide if I want a partial deck or...
