Hello, I've been a member for a couple days now and have been stalking all your mods looking for inspiration on what I can do with a 12' jon I have. I've had the boat for almost 8 years now and finally live in a location where I can use it. So far I've primed all but the front section, ran out of paint, and cut and sealed a new transom out of 1x6x4' oak. I've debated on putting in removable flooring but being a poor starving college student I might just skip the flooring and lay down some carpet. Would like to split the center seat like Bufford's for battery storage/electrical locations. Looking at various fish finders for under $150 leaning towards humminbird products, maybe the piranhaMax 170 or 525, but open to all opinions. The boat will be wired for nav lights, interior lights, fish finder 12v plug-in, and possibly a for a radio and removable livewell pump. New seats are in the near future as sitting on the benches shortens my fishing time. The boat will be powered by a 3.6HP Sears i believe from the same era of the boat. Its been sitting for decades and all it took was some fresh gas and a little carb cleaner and fires right up.
Always open to tips, comments and concerns.
Thanks,
Alex
