I just wanted to say hey to the group. I've been a reading this site for quite some time now, but I've never posted.
I've had several tin boats, but I've never done anything major to them. I still have my grandfather's 1436 jon boat, that I can't bring myself to alter in any way.
Ok, on to the important stuff...I purchased a 1985 Bass Tracker 3 last year that needed some TLC. I've been thinking (and drinking), plotting, scheming, and figuring out how I want to overhaul this boat for a whole year now. I've been scouring this site and absorbing in the vast amounts modification knowledge that it has to offer.
I wanted opinions on using galvanized sheet metal as a flooring option. Has anyone tried it with any success? Thoughts, comments, insults...?
I'll be posting in the projects section as I start getting stuff done on the boat.
Thanks,
Weasel
