Couldn't pass up this deal. 10' Quicksilver and Eagle fishfinder for $250. It's in super shape and only one quarter sized patch on the entire boat. Took about 20 minutes to get it cleaned up nicely(pics are before I cleaned it).

I'll be putting a 12 or 15hp motor on it. I'd like to make a simple mount to put a small trolling motor on the bow. Anyone have any ideas how to do this?

Also, I need to be creative with underseat storage. Any DIY ideas for storage under the seats?

Trolling motors are not for bow use on sibs, if wanting to count with one, would need to get the tubbing, wooden plate and patches to be glued at front bow, something like this, don't ask me where to buy, check Defender, West Marine inflatable accesories. For storage could glue a front bow bag, or place under seat stotage bags, check same stores.

Happy Boating
