Hi Just bought a 13 I think a 69 Bass Boat Not sure if stock Tiller steering Found in a Barn ( well it came from a barn ) last used in 96-7

I have looked at the pics ( one) of a "trophy" mine seems different but it may have been a dealer Modified The front anchor hatch has been decked over and a front access to below the deck is made[img][/img] of heavy Mahogny ( which leads me to think it was a Factory deal but....)

anyway pics are at: http://ctp13.smugmug.com/gallery/6031...8642_erGvN

Well its a 13` Whaler alright, but modified by a previous owner into a Bass boat. What are your plans for this boat? If you want to return the boat to original condition, removing the carpet and restoring the fiberglass deck will be a real challenge. The hull seems in good shape though, Has it ever been painted?

Nice for fishing. I would get rid of the carpet though.

The carpet in the bow is glued down ( UGG!) the main bit is on a board and lifts up . actualy I am glad you guys think it is a Mod makes it easer to rip it all out.

now for an interior. unfortunatly wood is not my usual thing .

and it's not been painted so a little/lot of elbow grease should make it shine.


Thanks for the info more questions i'm sure.
