kinda stands out on the water but im only 17 what do you expect! Pride-N-Joy for me

[CrowRiverRat83]

Nothing wrong with that boat Evinrude19. I prefer those boats actually, all function!

[Jordyn Kaufer]

Well heres our nice little boat we bought last year!

Works good on the river and even better up in basswood!

and we are currently installing a nice marine radio in der!

and then it also works nice for duck hunting!

(the stuff on both sides of me is camo canvas and it works really nice.

we are "pimpin" out my uncles little 12 footer for duck by using a pop-up blind with a camoed out engine!!

evinrude19, hey don't knock yourself, at least your not blowing all your cash like most your age. It's a good start! Flip it over this spring, sander her down and spray her up! She'll look like a millon bucks! In B/C 2. Leech~~

[Dbl]

Hey dbl, that looks like Canadian landscape. correct?

Very, very, very close! Rainy Lake, the American side.

[evinrude19]

i tried throwing new paint on last year but she pealed of pretty good on the bottom so i am going to try again once it starts to warm up some outside cant wait to unleash that 9.9 evinrude lol i love that boat though i have gone through some much in it for the 3 years i have had it. big fish magnet right there

[MinnesotaMongo]

My Tourny Pro - I've had it a year and really, REALLY enjoy it. A pleasure to fish from.

[leech~~]

boiler, very nicely done! The rope lights are a great idea! Did you double check all these old rivets before you buttoned it all back up? So what are you going to do with that little Crestliner hiding on the side of the garage?

[caseymcq]

Two of my boats.

My big boat.

and my duck boat that doubles as my smaller lake boat.

[Burnham]

im also only 17 so i dont have the nicest set ups(i mostly fish rum river anyways)

Im gettin it ready for the year!!

14 foot

I also have a 1959? 5 1/2 johnson for the john boat

Gunna use it as a duck boat in a couple years.

got it for free from grandpa so that makes it even better

12 foot

evin19, Where and what kind of paint did you buy for it? On an old boat with a lot of old layers of paint, you have got to strip her down to bare metal, and then go from there. Good marine primer and then marine top layer! Put a stripe on the top, and she'll look great! I know it can cut in to the old minnow money a bit!

[Dbl]

Dbl what size is your prov it looks like a newer verson of mine and mine is a 1775.

1999 1775 Pro V.

[evinrude19]

yah i know but it will look nice and worth the money. it needs to warm up some! I already have the all the paint and stuff

[Wish-I-Were-Fishn]

Dbl, was this taken at Voyageurs National Park? Looks like one of the campsites there.

Very nice backdrop!

[Jordyn Kaufer]

Dbl,

I've gotta say, that is a really nice picture!!

[leech~~]

evin19, take your time, and do a good job. It shouldn't peel in one year if you get it right! Sorry for sounding like your Dad! Good luck with the project!

[CrowRiverRat83]

Both very cool boats Burnham, I'm in the market for a setup like your rowboat.

[evinrude19]

yah i kinda rushed last years one because i wanted to fish! lol but i definitely going to do it right this year.

[Burnham]

Rowboat?! just kiddin ...thank you, yea i really like the set up, only have 2 5.5 horse motors though and i want to upgrade to a 10 hp sometime this year...

oh and yea i was lookin at boat motors on cra!gslist the other day and came across many boats similar to mine in the $200-750 price range

[LMITOUT]

Looks like a lot of boats that are ready for some open water. Nice rigs boys.

[CrowRiverRat83]

Burnham, I too have been lookin on hsolist lately but I'm trying to find just a boat and trailer mostly. I already have a super reliable 6hp Johnny to throw on it. I shouldnt have any trouble finding one before the fishing starts to heat up though. Its hard to find a setup with a really nice trailer like you have.

[Burnham]

yea i know what ya mean. and those johnnys are reliable arent they! both of mine are right around 50 years old and work fine. yea i got the trailer from northern tool and equipment a couple years ago for $350. it cost a penny but was worth it

[CrowRiverRat83]

I think thats the route I might go with the trailer. The 6hp I have is a 1972 model and runs like the day it was made, my dad bought it brand new back then. Thanks for your input.
