What about this vinyl that is on some of these boats?
Are you talking about the vinyl on the seats?...If so, this boat was full of it and was actually in good shape. But the wood it was on was rotten. I doubt I will put any vinyl back in it...I want a fishing boat that I dont have to worry about not being able to take the abuse that I can put a boat thru...Rofl

This vinyl flooring they put in this War Eagle seems to be very durable and it looks great. Very pricy I bet.
one thing you might think about doing is put in an automatic bilge pump beside the manuel pump. that way if you happen to have to park the boat on a lake in the open and it rains at night it will keep the water pumped out. got a friend that fishes out of a "fish and ski" with a windshield and when it's cold in the morning that windshield makes the ride so much better. you'll love it.
Thats exactly what I am going to do. The bilge pump that was in it doesn't work and putting in a new automatic bilge pump and a new aerator pump is one of the next things on my "To Do" list...I am really looking forward to having the windshield next Fall and Winter!!!
The stuff I am going to use is called Ultra Tuff Coat...Yep...Its pricy but worth it....I saw "Heavyleads" boat that he did down at Talquin and I really like it...Sorta a rubber type finish with some texture and comes in several colors...Going to do 95% of the inside of my boat in a Medium Gray color...Cleans up easily also.
