[QUOTE="knox37, post: 206906, member: 5790"] Thank you sharp looking boat is what I am going for. I was wanting something simple yet custom and usable. The PO drilled through the lid of the live well which I am not happy with but my idea was to go ahead and mount the plywood and carpet with seat to the lid of the live well and seal possible leaks with washers and silicone. The plywood that covers the livewell will be on hinges so when you need to get into it you would lift it all at once grab the seat pull forward and the livewell would open with seat. I hope I am making myself clear on my idea but if I have not than my next project will be this section of the boat and will post pics asap. As far as the motor goes it pushes it very well around 18.9 but will slow a little with all the add ons. It is funny because with what little I have done to my boat I have had it out once with my wife and it was funny because at the bait shop everybody that was there came over to look and ask questions about the boat even though their boats were worth 5 to 10 fold what my boat is worth even at the lake we were approach by many who wanted to look and ask questions about the boat. here in California these bots are not very popular compared to where most members on here are from so pepole see it and have to ask questions. It is kinda funny that a guy with a 40,000 Bass boat is interested in my Turd. [/QUOTE]
