Default My new Flounder Boat.

I found this on Criegslist over in Bon Secure. It needs some work and I adjusted the price accordingly.



This is going to make a GREAT Flounder platform. It's a '99 1860 SeaArk. 18ft long....Bottom is 60in wide and all welded. The motor is a '99 DF-70 Suzuki.

I love these 4 stroke Suzzy's.



The trailer needs some real attention ....Springs and axle. Axle due to having Buddy Bearings...I hate Buddy Bearings! Give me Posi-Lube spindles any day.



This will be a work in progress, but I have a lot of parts already for it.



I have the extra batteries, 80lb thrust Minkota Trolling motor, 4- 150watt HPS lights, 2000 Honda.



I want to put a Bob's Machine shop Jackplate on it.



It needs new wiring on boat and trailer.

















Nice Large front deck. I want to add wide washboards down each side to be able to run around the boat easier.

HaHa Thinking a 400HPS in the dead center Bow. Then the 4- 150HPS's added to that.



It will be a work in progress. The 12V units that are on there will be GONE!

I have a 98 just like it that i use up here in TN, there are well built and very tough, It will be a bumpy ride in a chop though. I have a 70hp Johnson and it will run around 32 @ WOT.
