    Coho resto

    Well she isnt a bass boat, already have one of those all fancy and tuned up. So I started tinkering with my 400.00 craigslist boat, I like projects. Its been a work in progress for awhile and its turned into a 5000.00 boat but im still satisfied.

    What Ive put into it, came as a bare shell

    1989 mariner 90hp 8" rite hite jp

    kicker bracket 2000 6hp johnson

    minn kota power drive 12v

    bay star hydro steering

    all new seats

    console





















    She isnt finished quite yet, the gf and I took her out the other day and used the little motor to troll up a few trout seems like its gonna be a very nice little boat for the non bass related adventures. Hope you guys enjoiyed the pics.

    $5,000...but well worth it. That thing looks like a new boat...
