I know its not a tracker, but you can see what I have been doing to my poor boat....lol



I had some cracked lids (fiberglass) and decided to design my own out of aluminum. Of course that meant new carpet and some upgrades.....



I started to post pics in the Library here but I realized it would soon be full.....



Here is a link to my Picasa Album. Enjoy....

[Teri C.]

Gosh, I don't know why you don't just buy a new boat every year like I do.



Toxic, I better get my 5lber first!! and make sure the livewell is ready for me to pee in. LOL !



Kidding...I'll hijack the coffee can at the cabin!

 

[Bill McElroy]

...better be the can...and not the pot!!:blink:

 

[Corey Carrico]

Very impressive! what color was the carpet origionally?

 

[Mini]

Tan/Beige.



Teri, the water is gonna be warm enough for you to jump in this year! I used to get one every year....got sick of rigging them!



Tox....just bring your "A" game....I can hook em on there for you! I might be able to get Kim Stricker to though...lol

 

[Dan J.]

Great job Mini!! Cutting the TM insert still puckers me up. It has to be one of the best inventions to a bass boat in the past 50 years! Your work looks really nice and clean. Enjoy!!

 

[Mini]

thanks Dan. Those lids arent hinged yet. I am waiting to get the back deck carpet on first and hinge all the lids at once. Then the cockpit carpet will get glued down. Then I need to cut out/weld/carpet the deck extension w/speakers and amp. Then comes the HDS8 and Structure Scan and Sirius Sat weather and radio. Then comes the powerpole....by that time it will be fall! lol

 

[ND Bass]

....and time for a new boat.



Mini, you forgot to finish your last comment so I thought I'd finish it for you.



Nice work, looks great!

 

[Jim B]

Mini, thats some nice looking work you have done there.

 

[Mini]

Back deck carpet and cockpit carpet is done, I will be uploading pics shortly....



I wish it would stop raining so I can get it done and take Mac Daddy fishing....

 

[Scott Hammer TOXIC]

As long as it's ready for Mac Toxic:lol::lol::lol:



TOXIC

 

[Mini]

Mac Toxic?



Is that some sort of twisted love child you two have or have your alter ego's morphed into a strange cartoon drawing fishing farting machine?







It will be ready. And I wont have to worray about the 600 pounds of Mac/Toxic going through my lids!

 

[Bill McElroy]

...man..if that isn't the heffer calling the cattle fat!!

 

[Mini]

I am large and in charge!

 

[Ken Neeley]
