Thank y'all....

Ya should've seen it when I first got it.  Floor & decks were rotted, carpet was disgusting, TM shaft was bent, FF wasn't even readable, windshield was broken up, not 1 toggle switch worked for anything....basically, nothing worked.....a pretty horrible mess!! 

It does leak a little.  I plan on getting someone that can weld aluminium and go over the rivets.

I'm hoping to baby it and get about 3-4 years out of it, then go get a Tracker or something to that nature.

It wasn't me...unfortunately, I'm not that handy.

I paid a boat shop manager to do all that, on the side so it was significantly less then what I'd have to have paid.

I bought an '88 Grumman Renegade 16' with a Mercury Classic 50 and a 43 lb Motorguide trolling motor recently.  It needs some redoing but I'm using it several times a week anyway.

Sound like a fun boat. If it safely gets ya out there that is a positive in my book.  ;D
