Post My Uncle J Custom Boat Build
I am looking to have a boat built to fit my needs. I just acquired a 23MB Sport that will be going to see Nick at Willey Fast in the next week for some upgrades and tuning.

I am wanting a 1644 hull with a hunt deck open design. Nothing crazy just something that is suitable for me and my boys to hunt and possible fish some from. Open for any recommendations!

Go longer - a 1742 will carry load better that 1648 - the length helps balance
the weight of a MM on the transom especially when fuel and battery is up front...

WC Customs and Uncle J are very popular.

What size did you end up going with?

Is that a built in tank under the deck?
