New project

[mobilnissan1991]

Did a pretty good deal today, traded an old 12 gauge shotgun for this fiberglass mudboat. It has a 420cc “Chonda” engine, straight drive, no clutch. This is pretty much how every Cajun starts out in South Louisiana, with a boat like this. It’ll work just fine for me. I’ll eventually put a 22 hp Predator with a Stage 4 performance kit. For right now Ill rebuild the carb, get it running and have some fun. Oil will either be Rotella T6 15W40 or Redline or Vanguard 15W50.

Are these boats registered? Do they meet USCG requirements?

Slowly but surely moving it out of the field where its sat for years via a handy Bobcat excavator

Looks like a fun project but you're not going into really skinny water with that big rudder.

I had a fraternity brother in college named "Gorton" whose family had owned that business. That was a long time ago, in a Galaxy far far away...
