Boat project finished - Dave-Trinity-Farms - 05-04-2014

Just finished up re doing a little aluminum boat I picked up. Was hoping for a better profit on it but after I got to stripping it down, I found 26 screw holes near or below the water line. So I had to take it in and have them professionally filled (welded) for the cost of 100.00. Oh well. If I can get it sold, ill see if I cant turn around and do another one. Hoping to work up to a big enough one that I can take Legion on Smile

Here is a before and after shot.

Hart and Trask told me they took it for a test run behind your back. Both said it ran great. Only two improvement they could see. Hart said he wished the seats were higher because they were not much of a challenge for jumping, and Trask was upset because there was no wheelbarrow.

LOL Smile ill make sure the next one has a wheelbarrow type seat Smile
