Build is looking great. I will be following this. Check out my old build. Same boat. Might give you some ideas https://forum.tinboats.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=16745

Looking good. I think I found my boats half brother. Now get done so you can fish already.

Yeah I wanted to put them on both sides but I lost one of the covers. Would you happen to know where I could get the covers?

Well it's been a while, but I finally fished the boat. All that is left is the paint. But that can wait. I was able to get 46mph on the gps. Not quite what I was hoping for. It does ride very smooth even through some chop. Ran the bay and went out of Haulover cut. Ran a couple of miles into the...

Well first test run of boat. Think it ran fine. Let me know what you guys think. Sorry but I forgot to check my gps, I was too stoked. Now time for the paint and finishing her off. Appreciate any criticism Click on pic for video

Been very busy with work, so I haven't done much. I have a few updated pics. Should be in the water in a couple weeks. First off hre is the motor I finally went with. 3rd motor I should add. It is a 1991 Yamaha 90. Got the controls and steering in I also had some rod holders made...

@cubman I have not installed the cables yet. But no, the factory ones won't reach. These boats come with a side console, so I need a couple more feet. I just got the top mount controls yesterday. I will be installing this weekend. I will post pics of how I run the cables. And the credit for...

Well haven't done much to the boat. Busy trying to troubleshoot the "no spark" issue. I did put together a driver seat. I installed hinges to allow access to livewell. I am enjoying reading all the mods going on. It's like every other day there is a new one. Giving me ideas for the next...

@rook Not any real extra support. I installed it and it doesn't shake a bit when i hit it. We will see when it's in the rough water. The difference might be because I had my console all welded together. No wood at all. So I finally got to work on her today. Not really anything big, but I did...

Hi there, just noticed this section of the forum. I have been posting in mods. Here is my 14ft Sundance skiff with a 25hp Merc. It now has a 40hp Evinrude. And here is my new project. Still working on it. 17ft tx17 https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=16745 There are...

@Nussy I have about 125.00 in the console. The toolbox was free so that helped a lot. I will be installing it tomorrow.

I am placing cusions on seat and backrest. I am in South Florida. Can u imagine the grill marks. haha

Well I picked up the console from the shop today. Still needs a few tweaks. Here are the pictures. My buddy got bored so he made this up. Going to install the console this weekend. I will update when I can.

Well worked on console. Got the idea I want. I am adding a section for the front of the console for a seat and storage. Decided it is probably easier to just have a welder put it together. I sat it in the boat just to get an idea of what it will look like. I will wait till it is done then decide...

First I would like to say, I am glad I found this forum. Have been reading for about a month or so. I have always owned tin boats. Usually just 10-12ft jon boats. You know, "throw it on the roof and lets find a new lake." I did own a 18ft Starcraft center console. But all I did was replace the...
