I will say that having all the original aluminum from the original interior layout was a blessing. I really didn't have to spend much $$$ wise on material. I bought the boat originally for $500. I sold the motor for $750.


Items I HAD to have....

New tires $60
seats (4) $200
paint and primer $40
one sheet plywood, (rest came from scrap stock) $32
metal screws $7
saw blades/hole saws $30
plumbing $45
switches (12) $36
carpet/glue Trade out/$13


Things I bought to enhance....

Lowrance 520c w 3,000 antenna $400
LED courtesy lights (6) $48
120v recepts (4) $12
12v outlets (2) $12



Another member of the forum, Starfish gave me a Garmin 192c head. I ordered a power cable for it and an internal antenna. I cannot find a gimble bracket for it and will have to fabricate something. That's about it. I am going to mount a radio/mp3 player eventually.
