    Alumacraft Flying D

    E-mail that number to Alumacraft they will tell you what year it is. D's are great solid boats great hull, at low speeds you can lay that boat over on it's side, don't worry it will not tip.

    Tackle boxes

    When I fish the gulf, I fish lighter than ever, 1 rod and circle hooks, minnows or shrimp. Just free lining.

    Tackle boxes

    I don't like the bag with the plastic trays or bins inside I prefer the open up 6 trays. I have one with pike rigs, one with walleye rigs and one with panfish rigs, I mix the bass rigs with the walleye ones. I usually go out for one specie each trip out, that way I only have 1-2 tackle boxes and...

    Aluminum Transom vs Wood

    In my early 20's thought putting a 9.9 hp motor on a jon boat rated for a 5hp was an ok idea. It lasted for a couple weeks till the transom let lose in the corner. It all ended up on the bottom of the Mississippi.

    I love to kayak fish, getting out after a couple of hours is problematic though.

    10' sitin kayak

    You are in zero risk from electrocution with a 12 volt battery. A deep cycle battery in a 10 foot kayak may be another challenge though.

    Tried to help a guy selling a vintage Alumacraft

    There is a tag on an alumacraft Transom that has the model on it but if the boat is left outside over the years the tag may have faded. A Deep C is worth about the same as a Flying D, this one had holes in the dash that drive down any value. He said it was his dads that he bought in 1954. There...

    Based on his voicemail I am thinking he is more like 12 pack stupid. It is kinda funny when an idiot that is dead wrong insists on telling you how wrong you are.

    Tried to help a guy selling a vintage Alumacraft

    So even though I am not in the market I still scan Craigs on a regular basis. Guy has a flying D for sale, he has it listed as a flying C. I sent the guy a text and simply stated that he has a flying D and if he sends Alumacraft the number on the knee of the transom they will give you the model...

    I have a vintage lund boat I have also collected old Alumacrafts and for the most part hulls of that era are pretty basic, instrumentation was after market nothing really unique about them other than good quality materials and construction.

    1973 lund tyee offshore

    It is an aluminum hull with a wood floor covered by carpet or vinyl, nothing much to it back in that era.
