Warthog - I'm still undecided . . . I'll most likely end up with 1/2" marine ply - just cause it's available and fits within the budget.
Trayder - If you hadn't introduced me to these finer boats contender/seacraft boats . . . I'd still be pounding my brains out in an old 17ft sportcraft thinking that the ride was totally awesome. Thanks again for opening my eyes to these amazing boats and for creating the site. I've learned a ton from everyone especially you, strick and warthog. I'd be friggin lost without this site to exchange/borrow ideas.
If you do end up redoing another seacraft [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
perhaps you might consider a 23ft cc, flush deck, pilot house, and a diesel inboard with the greasel conversion (
www.greasel.com) . . . so you can run the seacraft off vegtable oil.
