Here's the first part of turning my little aluminum boat into a bass boat. This is a big project so it will have to be a multi-part series. I'm taking my old 1962 11 foot aluminum row boat and turning it into what I hope will be a mini bass smashing machine. Hope you all find it interesting enough to follow along.
I know the plywood I used is NOT marine grade but here's why I made that miss-statement.
Since normal pressure treated plywood has some aggressive copper salts that tends to accelerate the oxidation of the aluminum it is in contact with I wanted to use an alternative. I found some plywood especially made for roofers using aluminum flashing around marine environments (near the beach) that has less aggressive salts. So that's why I made the mistake of calling it marine plywood.

I used. Weather treated 2x2's. For the frame build. On my 14 ft cat rigg. It's very strong & lite weight. & water proofed. Real well . I needed to go as strong & lite weight as possible on the framing. & deck work but still be very strong cause I was adding weight afterwards with troll motors batteries. Fuel Tanks . Extinguisher. Flooring.. lites. Rod holder. Rod rack. Wiring. Oars. Yu name it it's got it. So it's a heavily. Decked cat ring for a 14 ft jon. & it's not light anymore. But it's right at the waterline marker. & it rides like a caddie.

Very cool, when will we see part two? I just purchased a 14 ft aluminum row boat/fishing boat and will be undertaking the same sort of project. It's actually quite neat as it's a Cadillac boat made in Cadillac, Michigan. A couple questions for you, why didn't you decide to go with the bent frame around the bow of the boat instead of just making a lattice like frame for supports using the existing benches? Since you took so much foam out of the boat are you planning on replacing that with anything? Seems like a safety hazard to take away all of that bouyancy. Thanks!
@EngineeredAngler
@EngineeredAngler 4 года назад
That sounds like at interesting boat...Cadillac.. but yes your right I will be adding more foam than I took out. The locations of the existing benches really don't work for me as supports. I will be leaving some of the vertical bench supports and using them. The tough part for me is that every time I think about it I come up with one more thing I want to add to the boat. Hopefully I can finish it before the end of the summer.

Pressure treat corrodes aluminum and pressure treat does not mean marine grade, marine grade ply has no knot holes or voids (which begin to rot first)
@EngineeredAngler
@EngineeredAngler 4 года назад
You're right about the marine grade...I miss spoke. But I am aware if the issues with the new much more active copper treatment in the wood these days. I took the precaution of using MicroPro from Osmose witch is supposed to be as safe as the old style pressure treatment when used with aluminum (that's why I said marine grade, still wrong I know.). The old piece of wood in the transume was a treated piece of lumber and has been on there for more than twenty years without issue. Hopfully the info I got from Osmose isn't bullsh...t. Thank you though ...you are write on both points.

Hey man, random question. Jig vs cheburaskha, which one gives the fish more leverage to throw the hook? Jig has weight fixed to the hook while cheb has a free swinging hook. Thanks
@EngineeredAngler
@EngineeredAngler 2 года назад
The cheb has the highest potential for momentum therefore, highest potential to be thrown.

💥 FYI: That marine grade plywood against the bare aluminum is going to eat holes in your transom!!! 👎 Not sure if you realize the chemical process that will occur?❓👍👍Your idea to laminate foam board to reinforce the bulkhead is fantastic - very inventative. 👍👍
@EngineeredAngler
@EngineeredAngler 3 года назад
Yes...I'm aware of the aluminum and treated wood issues. This plywood is "supposed to be safe for aluminum contact" . It was developed for roofers working near the coast where they use aluminum flashing. Only time will tell.

You really want that plywood to run the full depth of the transom so that it will spread the torque out from a motor..

Right...I know, I misspoke. It's actually pressure treated plywood designed to be used by roofers on houses on the coast with aluminum flashing. It's a new product that is supposed to be safe to be in contact with aluminum in a coastal environment...that's why I called it marine ply. But, I know marine ply is something completely different. Thank you, I'm sure other's noticed the mistake too. Cheers.

@@EngineeredAngler I know,, LOL not a big deal, just bought some marine grade, and its stupid expensive,,, and after hearing your total cost, I figured it was just a good exterior ply,, which is fine,, Im doing a similar build, but Im opting for steering , using a 9.9 hp on my 12f, ,, nice job on your boat
