with a bit of spare time on my hands i decided to give my crab boat a bit of a new look.
its a 3m punt with a 6hp on the back, with an oncoming wind it would slap like crazy, so i always had to move everything to the front. so i thought i would build a casting deck to add some weight to the front. i also added a GPS to my sounder that the wife had bought me about 2 years ago. at the same time i put new hubs and bearings on the trailer. She is looking good now. i need to get her out on the water to give her a test to see how she goes. cheers Benny.

yeah wayno just a seat across the front. i ran aluminum angle and tube around and braced it. 12mm ply with a lick of paint, all S/S nuts bolts and screws, cost me around $100.
