I have a 14' sea nymph boat that I am repairing the transom on. I am striping the whole back section (inside and out) the best I can, and then priming and replacing the wood. The outside of the boat is flat green, the inside is a textured sand green. Eventually I would like to strip the entire...
I have a 14' Sea Nymph boat and have had a blast with it since this spring. When I bought it, I knew the transom was soft and would need replacing, and my engine doesn't sit high enough. I decided to replace it, and want to do it right.

I have just bought a Yamaha 15MSHB, and it is a 15 hp 2 cycle pull start without a alternator. I wanted an electric start, just so I would have an alternator, but this was hard enough to find. If I want to be able to charge my battery while on the lake, do I have any options?
Thanks!
I do not have room to mount my trolling motor in the back, my outboard takes up the whole transom. I am trying to mount it towards the bow, but I am not getting and good bite because the angle of the v-hull. When I turn the 40lb thrust past one or two of five, it almost falls off.

Re: 1967 14' V-Hull Aluminum Sea Nymph - To restore or not to restore, if so, how far
Here is the outside the boat... I could leave it be or strip and down and shine up the aluminum and or paint it one or multi-color. Do you think I could ever get all the paint off to leave it bare metal? If I...
