Well, here's MY RIDE!
It's a 1979 Starcraft 14ft. The propulsion is a 1983 Evinrude 9.9 and a Minkota Eundura 40lb Thrust Trolling Motor. This boat has been in my family since the 1980's. It has gone thru several transitions over the years. At first it was a hunting boat painted duch boat brown and had chicken wire screwed around the entire boat and was hand weaved with marshweeds. It was like a floating Duckblind. It was pretty cool looking and the FED's always harassed us because the reg numbers were always hidden! LOL Wish I had some pic's of it to show but no can do. The boat then sat in the backyard for many years as we had a 21ft Hydrasport center console and a 16ft Grumman Deep V which we saltwater fished in for ever.
Eventually I regained my interest in freshwater and decided to use the 14ft'er So in order to bring it back to life I re rigged it and gave it a fresh coat of paint and the transformation began.
It has taken me a huge portion of my years fishing in it too finally have it set up to fish effortlessly whether I am solo or with some one. I can do just about everything I want to do. It is set up with everything in it's place and this way when ever you need the net or pliers or whatever it's always in the same spot Being the boat is only 14ft open space is maximized by using the dry box and tool box to store all my accessories such as rod holders planer boards airators spare battery ect. Everything I need is at a hands reach including my tackle box. Clears up all the clutter and keeps things neat and tight. I am set up to fish up to eight rods with another angler but usually only run four by myself. I continually am making things better or more organized all the time! I have a few winter projects that I am working on such as building a storage compartment inthe middle bench and also buiding a baitwell to replace the cooler with. I have back ups or spares for everything on the boat and that has saved a fishing trip on many occasions.
She's kinda beat up and leaks some but it's a fine tuned fishing machine!!!!
Enjoy.
