The whole inside is vinyl for easy cat and sturgeon slim clean up at the end of the night. Light’s throughout for night fishing – HID’s on the front for easy navigation at night.

March 27, 2015 at 5:46 pm #1528016My river rig. Still looking to add a set of lights that are removable on the front and a perforated aluminum floor. I put a new 60/40 Merc jet on last fall to replace my 40/28 Yamaha I had.

Yes that is a prop tunnel. It is the best of both worlds for me. I get to run fairly shallow water and not lose my horse power or fuel economy. It only has a manual jack on it but would love to have a hydraulic plate.
If anyone cares this boat is for sale for a fall delivery. Priced to move.

Before I start catfishing I’m going to put some decking behind the rear bench and a shelf between the back two bench seats, somewhat like my old rig. And yes, PVC rod holders screwed into the rear deck.
I have some nice seats that attach to the benches too. I’m working on an old Merc 6hp (’61) and have a Minn Kota as well.
Here’s a shot of my old rig…this time the opening will be larger and centered. One nice thing, the beam on the She Nymph is a little wider than the GWB.
