 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
Nothing special.. 19' 44" Bottom 22" Sides im going with a wood floor instead of double aluminum bottom just because thats my personal preference. Talked with him earlier today and material was ordered 15 min later. Im going to hang my 37 prodrive off the back of and let it eat. Kinda fired up.. this is the first boat i will have bought brand new or not built at my house. I will post pictures as i receive them and once its done.

 Re: 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
My uncle j has been ordered for about 4 weeks, hopefully I don't have much longer to wait. He got all my material last week but they forgot my bottom, just got word today that my bottom is finally crimped. Good luck with yours!

 Re: 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
Hey rambeaux, I bet that skiff will move good, I went with a 1748 flat with a taper in the bottom for my gtr

 Re: 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
Yeah he mentioned waiting on a bottom to be crimped so i assume thats yours. He got my material in yesterday and shot me a picture of it. Im pretty fired up about it. I just have to get a trailer ready to put it on. I have an old bass boat trailer that i was going to use for a bbq pit that i will just deck flat and use for the time being untill i get my shop built and have time to build my own trailer. As i get pics i will keep yall up dated.

 Re: 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
Took a picture on the way out the door this morning. I will get some more this evening once i get my floor in and some more this weekend when i go run my traps. It came out really nice and is solid as a rock. Im very happy with it. I ran it yesterday after we got the motor hung and I ran consistent 27 with me 11 gallons of gas, the dog and a light ice chest in the front. This was with my 2 blade, i will have to try out the three blade and see whats up.

 Re: 19' Uncle J Skiff ordered
