This is going to be my little project...
« on: March 30, 2007, 09:37:07 AM »
My boss is giving me this boat and trailer.  Its a 16' Bomber.

I have been needing a little boat to put in the pond by my house as well as some other smaller lakes and ponds that I fish that wont allow big motors.

I'm not worried about how it looks just as long as it floats :)

Hopefully with a little elbow grease and paint I can fix this one up a bit to do what I need.

Sounds like an okay boss ;) Yep, a trolling motor would move it along fine in the ponds. 8)

He actually has the trolling motor that came off of it.  Maybe I will get luck and it will run.

He just brought me the pictures and I havent seen it first hand yet.

I'm more worried about the trailer and getting it home than anything.

Just make sure you have plenty of duct tape and bailing wire should the trailer be a problem ;)
