« on: Apr 28, 2016, 08:17 PM »
finally finished about 10 hrs into adding all the extras. 9.5 ft
toons. front mount trolling motor batter box for sonar battery. raised boat seat on 13 inch pedestal with swivel seat.extra storage in the back.transducer adjust. birch ply deck 5/8ths. lowrance hook 4 chirp with down scan.all wired under the deck in 1/2 tubing. I'll be adding a foot control called the troll king this week made by canyon lake nifty foot control mod for front mount trolling motor. ill probably add a small clamp on  down rigger come june and possibly anchor system. maybe some strap on storage bags. all said I'm super pleased with it. just needs some more paint on her.    [/URL[URL=http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/jcr1026/media/0428161708_zpsugv4o2gr.jpg.html][/URL[URL=http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/jcr1026/media/0428161710_zps26bwopyv.jpg.html]

That's great.
My son Jeff has one of those.
He doesn't use it much.
I bought it for him for x mas 2 years back.
