My winter boat project
« on: February 12, 2010, 08:52:28 PM »
My good friend Nick and I have been slowly working on a 14ft Grumman that was given to us.  The boat sat upside down in the corner of Nicks father in laws house for years and was almost brown in color when we decided to fix it up.  After spending a few dollars on plywood, paint, indoor/outdoor carpet, and some other expenses we finished our project today.  We also were given a nice 6hp motor to boot.  I can't wait to try our new setup, it should be perfect for medium size lakes and back bay crabbing/fishing.  Enjoy the pics

If I can ask, what kind of paint did you use on the boat?  Was it just regular home depot paint or bottom paint for a boat?
