Boat Builder Central

Yeah I built an FS14 with a long shaft motor which I purchased after the build. The transom ended being an 1" to low. so I would buy your motor before you cut out your transom. (or at least go and measure the exact motor you are going to use.

Hi, I have an FS14 in South Island NZ. I would not be taking mine offshore. Its a great boat for calm or chop. I use mine in lakes and rivers. I have a 15hp on mine it kicks along at 30km/hr with one person.

Hi Well Ive got the opposite problem, living at the bottom of the South Island, New Zealand. The temperature at nights gets down to -2 to + 8 degrees Celcius ( thats 35-36 degrees for you Farenheit guys) It does warm up a bit during the day. Im waiting 3 days for epoxy to cure hard enough for sandin...
