Hello all, starting my first tin boat build. Here’s a quick background on me and the boat. I’ve been fishing my entire life and finally have my own boat. fished the boat all summer and now have a lot of ideas and a plan for the build. I do have access to just about all the tools I think I’ll need, I have a full shop I work from every day. the boat as far as I know is a 1971 Starcraft mariner. I picked it up from a friend with a fairly new merc 9.9 that runs well. ( boats rated for 40 and I’d like to meet in the middle with a 20 or 25 eventually). Anyway here’s a few pictures, I pulled a ton of heavy, and rotted wood out of the boat already, along with enough random scrap steel to build another boat haha. Planning on welding a floor system together and dropping in a aluminum floor.
