    Default My new fixer upper


    I started with a 24 foot boat, just the toons and deck. I added an 85hp Johnson motor, built a standing center console, a collapsible bathroom, 8 rod holders for spider rigging in the front, new hummingbird helix 7, and a new 80 80lb thrust minnkota trevolla troll motor with ipilot. Sheeewww I'm broke and still not done but I'm abort about to get it fixed to suit me I guess, just need to find some fish lol. Let me know what you all think..Name:  0423181042a_HDR.jpg

    Added a rod storage rack to keep the extras out of the way, gonna put one on the other side as well. I'm a blacksmith so I used a couple 2x4 covered them in carpet and then horseshoes for the holders.Name:  0505181129.jpg

    That pop-up bathroom is pretty neat! Nice thinking! It looks like an asset when it's down, too. A nice place to sit. or use as a table.

    Too bad there isn't a way to remove or telescope the legs down when the top is down...

    Can you just unscrew the pipe from the bottom and store them?

    Either way, it's pretty nice!

    Nice work on the restoration. Take your time, and you will make the boat more and more fishable, until it's perfect for you.

    Also, I like how the horseshoes can hold several rods, instead of just one rod, like most holders.
