Looks cool. Actually have one located that I'm trying to make a deal on. Is that OSB that you used for the floor?

Good job!
My first "real bass boat" was a 15' Duck Hawk with a Chrysler 55. The boat had stick steering just like your blue boat. I bought it from my neighbor when he upgraded. I didn't have $1400 cash but he let me pay it out.

Michael, Excellent work! If you want another one to work on, I have a 16' Skeeter Hawk that you can have for free. It is similar to the one in your pics with the console. It also has a rod box and live well on the port side. It is stored inside my metal, concrete floored barn about 10 minutes from Lake Fork. Water got under the floor a few years ago. I took the floor out, cleaned out all of the wet foam. It is ready for new foam and reassembly. The transom is rock solid and needs no work. Has Minn kota bow mount trolling motor as well. There is a 45HP Mariner that goes with it.. Trailer tires are good. Trailer itself is in fair shape. If you want it, let me know.
Thanks, Ron

Had a 1974 skeeter hawk 85 evinrude casting decks . The boat had a double floor and the hill was weak knocked so many holes in it finally totaled it. Stay with ranger ,kingfisher, maybe a few others. Just my two cents
I got all day Iโm retired

I had a Top Tenner stick steering bass boat many years ago. Good times. Fishing machine! With a Johnson 55HP running wide open it โfeltโ way faster than it actually was with you sitting way out on the front of the boat running across a rough lake. Ahhhhhh, memories! ๐ค๐๐

Great job! Reminds me of fishing out of my old buddy's boat.
I didn't lose him at the boat. I shook him off cause I didn't want my hands to get "fishy"
