Boat Project

Post by The Nipigon »

Hello fellow Hawkers,

This past spring I decided to replace the carpet in the old 16fr LOWE. It appeared to be a straight forward job. A little research on the internet a few tools and lots of knuckle scrapping I was able to turn her from a old tired boat to a clean smart looking girl. (at least in my eyes). So here are some pics, and if you see the SCURVY DOG out on the Ottawa give us a wave.
