Thread: What type of boat

TJ,

Get something that doesn't leak, and everything else will fall into place. Next time your in LR, I'll take you out on the river. You can also take a look at my 1448 remodel. That would also be a good option for you. Buy a jon boat, and lay it out just the way that you want.

back in 1995 I attended college down in Monticello. I had F&F Boats build me a custom boat exactly like I wanted. I was into bowfishing at the time, so it was suited very well for that. It was a 1756 and I put a 70hp yamaha on it with a 80lb Motorguide trolling motor (You could ski behind the trolling motor on some fully charged batteries! :D ) I ended up selling it and later bought a 1648 War Eagle. If I had it to do all over again, I would go back with a F&F complete with rod holders and multi pedestal seating in the front. They literally give you a diagram of a boat hull and you draw in what you want and where you want it. Boat and trailer cost me between 3500-4000 bucks.

Bobberwatcher is right. And there are at least two boat companies here close to the house that will make you what you want. Leagend Craft and Weld Craft. Will get numbers if you want. Big wide center console with Rhineo liner and bait well, live well. storage.......

May go get me a new now.

See what you started.

Good luck. Post pictures when you get it.

HEHEHE!!! Yeah if you guys have numbers I'll call and check....Thanks for the input!

I had doug from F&F make me a 1648 v hull customized exactly how i wanted it. they are some of the best boats on the market in my opinion. I put a 60hp 2 stroke yamaha on it with a tiller handle. i got it and custom trailer so cheap also. they could of charged so much more. very good people to deal with. i would recommend them to anyone looking for a top quality aluminum boats

I think you need to remember this is a family web site buddy, and talk like this could cost me a marriage.
