Hello everyone, new member here. I have been lookin for a jon boat on a cheap budget. After 2 years and not saving...I found a 1973 Seaking 1432 and a home made trailer for $425.00. I figured this is a good starter boat. I wish I could of found something wider than a 32 for the floor, but from what I have seen they are all at least a grand or more. My father is giving me a 15 hp Eska motor, which I'm thinking may be too heavy for this boat. I have a pond a block from here to do some experimenting. If I find that it's too heavy I'l see if I can trade it for something lighter. I'l post some pics of soon. For now I'm gonna start sanding it down and thinking of a color to paint it. My main concern is having a niCe comfy deck up front. Mostly my 5 year old son and I will be on it. Any ideas would be great. thanks..
