The best (and most humorous) handman tips I ever heard: 1.) A little putty and a little paint will make it what it ain't! 2.) 1 coat for dust and 2 coats for rust!

I thought about a 14 ft, but 16 ft would be better room wise for myself, my buddy Shawn, and his 7 year old son. How hard would it be to convert the motor to a long shaft?

splitshot Member Registered: 03/15/05 Posts: 341 Loc: North Stonington	jspina39, I'm really looking for something in the 16 ft range. Thanks anyway. FTO, I like that idea about cutting down the transom, I'll give that some thought. Thanks. The best (and most humorous) handman tips I ever heard: 1.)
