well, just spent about 4 hours reading this website, plenty of info and thanks ahead.
So, what brought me here? I have a 12 foot John boat, like a gamefisher. Aluminum 3 feet wide, that I want to convert to a flats boat, a poling type boat.
Looking to make a saltwater flats boat out of it. I have decked and modified an Eldocraft III 17 footer in the past so I am not new to mods.
I have a few questions.
I plan to deck practically the whole boat.
Has anyone painted a deck with some kind of epoxy non skid type material, any pics?
Has anyone made a flats boat wilh poling platform?
Has anyone decked all the way to the top? no lip or anything for snags of flyline or cast net
Boat is going to be for solo fishing so not to concerned with tipping or top heavy.
Any one got any pics with a small gas powered motor with extended tiller?
Boat has some pinholes in bottom so i need to figure how to fill the holes.
Thanks ahead of time agsin.
Peace!
