Boat Questions!

Gday fella's

Me and my mate are thinking of buying a new outboard for our 11ft boat in 6 or so months. We are thinking about a Yamaha 15hp!

We also want to do it up a bit we are thinking about ripping out the rear two bench seats and having it just floored and also thinking about a spray job atleast inside if not outside.

How much would it cost to get our boat sprayed roughly?

And

Where could we get someone to make up the floor and how much would it be to put a floor in it with marine carpet?

Hi KJD

make sure these bench seats that you say are going to be rip out ,

are not designed as a part of rigidity of the hull.

otherwise the the sides of the hull will flex in if it a tinny.

Also with a 15hp motor will we have to register the boat or will we just need our boat licenses??

see link below for licensing from waterways

Yes it would need to be registered

but if it had a 5hp motor it would not
