hi everyone, my name is Joe. i live in in central fla on the east coast. i have been fresh and salt water fishing for many years on land and in my fathers boat. now that im 30 and have a son of my own, i think its time to have my own boat. my son is almost 2 years old, and is on the verge of me showing him what fishing is. i plan on modifying whatever boat i obtain since my pockets are not that deep. i am a welder/fabricator by trade, so i should be able to tackle the task at hand.
i will be fishing mostly in the flats, and inside the inlet/salt water. i really like the flat hull/jon boats compated to the v style. i guess its just easier on the eyes. i was thinking a minumum of 14'. im not really sure what i am looking for. i have been on craigslist and it seems instead of buying someone elses "ready to fish" boat, i would like to buy just the hull, and create what fits my needs.
well thanks for being here, and any suggestions to point me in the right direction is much appreciated. Joe
