[QUOTE="Vollmer, post: 347906, member: 8014"] Sitting here, going through my tackle, and I started thinking about my very first boat. It was a 1950’s something Glastron, closed bow, no windshield, and a transom that was bolted together with a couple 3’ sticks of all-thread and a 2x6. Haha The starter was shot, and in my youth, I decided to tie two batteries together to jack 24v to it. 🤣 It worked for a couple seasons, until the starter finally grenaded. I was probably 18 years old and broke. Funny thing was, I found a used starter, after that, for like $15. YOUNG AND DUMB! The side of the boat had a sticker that said “da boat” with the lettering in the shape of a fish. I remember making that sticker in a robotics class, thinking I was the cats ass. Ha! I ran that boat for 6-7 years, before getting a 16’ Smokercraft. Curious what others started out with?? [/QUOTE]
