    Re: My First Boat Project Final set of pictures. This is with the new seats I got off of ebay. I only paid $34 for both seat and that included shipping.

    My First Boat Project

    Re: My First Boat Project More pictures. I had a little trouble cutting the one edge but it's straight now. Also, putting carpet in the bow was a pain in the butt! After laying it on the floor I has some left over and added it to the seats.

    My First Boat Project

    Re: My First Boat Project More pictures. After priming the inside and seats I added 2 coats of the almond color. I had some extra blue left over so I added highlights to certain areas.

    My First Boat Project

    Re: My First Boat Project More pictures. The second color I added was an almond color because it matches my seats. Then I rolled in a bed liner to seal the bottom of the boat and reduce noise.

    I have an aluminum boat and need a trailer. After searching around I found a local guy selling a 16 foot holsclaw c950 trailer really cheap. My boat measures 13 1/2 feet from tip to end.
