Got a good deal on a old Commander 14' V today. Going to turn it into the family fishing boat. Not bad for $350.00! Pics are below.
 
Looks like a nice little project I've heard they have closed a couple ramps up down that way, is that true?

Ramps in my area are open, just depends on local government. Picking up a 15hp Mercury 4 stroke for it tomorrow. Should be a decent match.
 
Heck yeah I'd say a 15 will scoot that around pretty good!

Making progress. Got all the old wood out and hull vacuumed. Need to figure out what to do about the missing seat and braces. Thinking that I'll put a floor between the 2 remaining seats and redo the cut off bench seat tops. Little bit of paint and TLC and it will look like a new boat. My idea is to use 1x10 for the tops with a 1x2 face board to cover the screw holes that someone made in the bench sides.
