Did not get th PM

If you don't mind me asking did you sell the boat and the merc motor together.
What did you get for it?
I thought several time about selling mine but just can't bring myself to do it.
Jeff

You sold it.
Do you have any idea as to what hp motor was on this boat.
I looked like a really thick transom.
You could do a cold mold epoxy plywood bottom.
using nothing but marine plywood.

Because it is simple and small to build. WE are going to start out with a 32 or 54 lb thrust trolling motor. Which...

So I see in one of the pictures the rear cover does not seam very tight.
Also does the water run off or pole in the middle.
Do they have wood bows that run from side to side.

Hi I have a several Great Grand Kids and they all like to drive our bigger boats, but of course they can't do that on there oun.
