    Allison bass boat. 18 ft 77. I think it’d make a good center console flats boat.

    I bought this little beastie. Had reservations. Solid and runs good. As long as you consider 50 Merc 4 stroke good. You sit in it like a kid in a go-kart. Any wave whacks will transmit right to the spine. So I have 2 choices. Keep the little motor and put a 90 hp inline merc on it and sell it or cut the driver’s station out and start over. I found a small console and cooler seat. Inexpensive so I dragged them home. Anyway is a 77 Allie 18XST anything special? Or just another smallish oldish basset? Is it blasphemy to cut it up? Or is the thought of an Allison flats boat not that horrible?
