My new (to me) toy

Nice lookin' rig feesh! Looks pretty stable according to that pic above.

You should just be able to remove the switch from the head and extend the wiring and re-mount the switch in a plastic rain-tight electrical box, then go to Radio Shack and get a knob for it.

Been a while since I'd posted them threads on the stick-steering, but I think I'd posted most of my "thoughts" and pics there. I haven't actually done it, but if I can answer any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

The test run went very well, i am impressed with the stability of this boat. I launched it in my Dads pond, he and i got in and paddled around, we crossed a submerged log that was just under the surface, then ran it up on a stump on purpose just to see if it would dump us, it just slid off. I let him out and stood up in the rig just like the guy in the pick Slablapper posted. It is extemely stable. I am sure i could turn it over if i wanted to, but as long as you respect it as a small craft i do not think it will dump you unexpectedly.

I like it.......it will be a great boat for smaller shallower waters. As you work on it and fix it up post some pics along the way.
