I recently re-did the deck and bench seats, but the rest needed to be cleaned.

Yesterday I was on Priest, and a bottle of gear lube tipped over and the lid was not on. So bilge water and grease sloshed all over the floor of the boat, everything was a greasy mess.

So today I got a jug of degreaser and deep cleaned the whole inside. There was lots of shale gravel left over from past Dale Hollow trips. No more grease, dirt, gravel or mud.

Here's a crappy "before" pic with the old rotted deck.

And here with the new deck and after a good cleaning

It works great except for the thermometer. I actually was wanting another old simple one like that to put on the kayak. I will buy that other one from you if you want to part with it!

That's a sweet lil ole ride!
Yes it is.
When Catman was up at Dale Hollow he met up with me for a meet and greet. He had the boat in tow. Perfect little hunting rig.
I had the exact same boat when I was a younger man. My very first boat. Caught more fish out of that lil boat thAn every boat I have ever owned or fished off of combined. It was a fish magnet! Lol
If I'm remembering correctly I pretty much talked him into gettin it. Thought it may had even been my old one at first.
