What about this vinyl that is on some of these boats?

[TnT]

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.
