Thanks yeah those are nice. With my tailgate down in my truck I have about 8' of bed. Johnny you are right, if I could I'd have about 5 boats. Probably about 5 different trucks/cars too lol.

Yeah I'm starting to see that two boats is the answer. It is a compromise for sure, a tiny boat in a big lake is no good and vice versa. I'm gonna probably go for the 2 man plastic boat for now. That will get me on the water for next to nothing and then when I can save some more I'll get...

Just to update this I'm still waiting on this guy to buy my old truck. I've been looking at all of my options and I'm down to two choices, I think: A 10' plastic pontoon with a trolling motor, bass raider/pond prowler type thing. It would get me on the water at least for the small local lakes...

I'm a plumber too, and I hate getting that wax on a tool and then on my hands. What a mess, but it is useful at times. It would be good to keep in the boat when the temps aren't too high.

Just read through this whole thing. That thing looks great and it's nice to see it being built. I'm looking forward to seeing the the finished product.

Okay guys I finally got home and on my computer instead of my phone after a busy day. I should have mentioned that while this would be my first boat, I have been around boats since I was a small kid. I grew up fishing and boating in south Florida, and continued when we moved to Alabama...

I'd much rather have a 14' I just wasn't sure I could haul it without a trailer. I wouldn't be going far with it so it should be fine. Thanks for the responses, Joey

Hey everyone this looks like a great forum with tons of info. Like many before me I'm here because I am interested in picking up a little boat to go fishing/riding around in. I live within 30 minutes of a pretty good sized lake here in Alabama on the Coosa river. There are a couple little...
