I found my old rogue. Fella I sold it to years ago told a buddy of mine he was letting it go. It was rough. Dead fish in it , horrible wiring motor in bad shape etc. this boat was trashed. It's still in progress but just updating some things now. Tires were shot -jack broken, handle pulled off motor etc. I don't see how a boat can be trashed that bad.
Bad wiring removed:












Simple green, pressure washed five times. Bleached twice, vacuumed I have no clue amount. Scrubbing. Scrubbing with brushes, grill scrapers, putty knifes. Bleach and degreaser. It finally came clean(er). Gutted the broke speakers, bad wiring, and boat cleats. I left factory front and rear light and the switch for those but that was it.


New gas lines and primer bulb were put in. Changed the oil. Time for the new look- Paint brought the old boat some new character. Very happy.






Led light up front


Put most of the anti fatigue mat down last night with some tie down eyes in the floor. Put in the bilge also. Push pole and holder I did last night as well. Boiled seven pounds of peanuts while I was messing around -ill snack on today
Still more to come just waiting on some things to come in.

I like what you've done so far. Those are cool little boats

What year is that boat? Saw a 2001 gator trax the other day that was good as new.

Amazing what a little elbow grease and fresh paint can do. Looks really sharp!

That's a nice paint job, where did you get the stencils?

Nice paint job. You brought that boat back to life...

Way to turn that boat around!

Thanks fellas. Red leg stencil kit. It's the timber hd (bottomland ).
Can't be afraid of hard work, That 'll make ya lazy!! I love tinkering With a boat. I'll post a new thread of another I'm sprucing up. It'll have a cranked up long tail on it as well.

Great job so far. X2 on the great paint job.

Nice work! I always liked those little boats. I got a 23hp mbsd and I always thought it would work good on one. I'd love to find one in rough shape as well. Prob the only way I'd be able to get one
