 Project boat!
Picked up this boat today- its a 1976 15x44. All 1/8, smooth bottom. I pulled out over 200 lbs of water logged flotation. Gonna get a hunt deck added just like my other boat and paint it. Got it with papers for 400.

You can't beat that with a stick, but that ugly mofo needs some TLC.  I'm sure you have that under control though.

Beings that it is a (project) boat, are you going to allow less fortunate colored people live in it?

 Re: Project boat!
Old 1/8 smooth bottom boat with water logged foam. Could be a old godevil prototype.

Looks like the sides taper towards the center. What degree transom angle did y'all go with?

I hope it doesn't affect the running of the boat. With the minimizing of the bottom width due to tapering in, it may make boat squat when trying to take off. Meaning, it's going to be drawing more water than normal.

Some of the excel huntdecks are tapered, so I think it will be ok.
