It’s well cared for and has only slept outside one night. She’s almost 30 yrs old an will run 58-60 all day. She’s not the fanciest rig at the dance, but she’s still got some moves and can turn a head or two. At the end of the day, it’s whats in the livewell that counts. Enjoy your rig.
    thanks! Shoot me some pics of your rig!

    When I was in my early 20’s my aunt gave me a very old very beat fiberglass pirouge. I spent 2 days glassing in all the holes, cracks and soft spots. I put a 30# bow mount MK trolling motor on it and built a mount for a seat. I fished out of that thing for a couple of years. I caught more fish per hour than any big glass boat I’ve owned since then. I’m 61 now. I had to spend my money wisely in my past. I have owned very used boats to brand new boats. Seems I always caught more fish out of the boats I wasn’t afraid of scratching. You kids are fortunate to have a Dad that cares. My hat’s off to you.

    if you are second guessing yourself , I wouldn't mess with it, I didn't read all the reply's but what if the motor blows up? personalty I would not mess with it. if your like me you spend a lot of time with your boy's , dosnt leave a lot of time to work on that kind of project. couldn't you sell your current boat and take the money from that and what you will put into remodeling and find you a newer boat? do not jump into something just because it sounds like a good deal.
