    Default Here ya go Midnight, got me a new boat today!


    Well, it's new to me, lol. I purchased a 15ft MonArk today with a 35 Johnson outboard and a foot controlled Johnson TM for $600! The boat itself is in great shape but the trailer needs to TLC. I wasn't able to bring it home from my parents because the tires are shot on it. Once new tires are on, I'll be building some sides to it and painting it. I'm going to have some professionals look over the motor and have the water impeller replaced. After that I'm turning my attention to the boat and installing all my goodies I got for Christmas including a new depth finder, an Anchormate and anchor (Thanks Midnight!), and installing some new seats. This is going to be a fun project once I get started on it. It would be nice to have it ready by March 5th. Dad and I are talking about entering the crappie tourny on Lake Overcup. Anyways, hope ya'll enjoy the pics. I'll post more as I get to work on it.

    A boat that'll float is better than no boat at all! Looks like a heck of a deal. First boat I owned was a Mon Ark. Fish Safe!

    That thing is ready to fish now. Be careful with that fancy stuff or your be like me. Trolling motor, depth finder, trailer and boat lights, seat, doubled the cost of boat. HAHA. Have fun with your project. Just stop before you put spinners on your trailer rims.

    Thanks guys, and trust me, spinners will be not be included on the upgrades, lol. It's pretty much just going to get what needs fixed done and a few of my toys added.
