My Plans for a New Interior for a 15-footer; Where to buy L-shaped Brackets
I plan to replace the wood interior of my 1984 15-foot hull. [Moderator's note, when referring to a particular boat, please give the model designation.] I saw another 15-footer with a side console.

The jack plate I would be getting would be one with an electric motor to adjust height.
I don’t know the weights of all the various models and brands of jack plates.
I plan to buy a Yamaha 70-HP engine.

I am not really interested in maximum boat speed, but I don't want the boat to be under-powered. I think the SPORT 15 hull might become a bit unstab...
