My currently project, rags to riches

[keep_itsimple]

Hi all, been a while since ive been on here due to no phone (it went swimming while in a car, yes the car went under water on a 4x4 trip) i scored a old hunting deep v roof topper. Its in bad shape, it looks like someone throw random paint all over it, some small pin holes and lots of dints. At the moment ive patched the holes and sanded the body and got it ready for paint, replaced all rusted bolts with ss ones. Im Going to paint the outside matt black and sign write some graphics on it and theme it. Inside is going to be shale grey with a compartment up the front to hold safety gear and anchor and sounder mounted to the side with battery compartment. My main aim for the boat is to be able to throw it on the back of the ute and launch it anywhere. Mainly take to flinders for squid. The whole project should cost under $150 because i have all the materials laying around.

I can also take my 15 yamaha motor off my other boat and put it on this one. Pics while be up in the next couple of days

good luck, i love a good project....... but you know whatever you think its going to cost you should double that....nothing is cheap with the word BOAT attached to it.
