Re: Bowfishing setup progress!
I remember those builds!! I honestly believe the reason most bowfishermen are duck hunters is because those are the only hobbies where you pay so much to outfit a boat only to trash it all to He!! Every time you take it out. Hahahah
Mine was nicknamed the "stinkwagon". My wife said she could always tell how good the shooting was two or three days after by how strong the boat smelled when she'd go to get in her car. Hahah. I miss bowfishing dearly but I do not miss owning a bowfishing boat one single bit!!!! We measured our success in by how many times the smell would make you gag before you got used to it. No dead fish in the boat, but all that dried blood, scales and eggs sure stunk when it got hot.

Got the paint on! Washed the bare aluminum with soap and water the dryer with a blower, wiped down with white vinegar next , then applied a coat of rustoleum self etching primer followed by 2 coats of rustoleum multicolor textured! Hope it holds up for a while. On the floor I used 2'x2' square interlocking exercise mats from Wally World glued with contact cement! Inexpensive , comfortable and don't look to bad (of course no traffic yet)

Actually no , I spoke with John from Showme (great guy) but actually went with a fella out of NC with commonswag bowfishing, no reason other than I like the way there were no weldsbon the face of his front cover , but showme and many others make a fine light just personal preference!ruger7mag":a4yne6dz said:
