    Thanks Jerry.
    I like it as it looks as its already had a chopped top thing done to it.

      Really nice job. I've always liked those old Unifite's. You're making it look easy.

        Great looking Uniflite! Definitely a skilled craftsman.

          Who did your canvas work? I really like the complete look to it.

            That canvas came off a different boat and it was pretty fresh so I just made it fit the Uniflite.
            I have a Sailrite sewing machine and have been monkeying around with it. Nothing professional looking.
            Thanks for the complement too.

            When you see my boat, she is one of those 20 - 20 boats.
            Its good looking going past you at 20mph at 20 feet away

              Well if you're really itching to make one from scratch, let me know and I'll provide the boat

                Did your Uniflite come with both the helm seat and passenger seat? I'd like to find a similar seat set up for the passenger as I like the vintage fold down look.

                    I know mine came with both helm and companion seat not sure if they were any different on the smaller models.

                      I saw a pic of Helmars boat that showed two seats. ..I really like how they look with the folding supports.

                        It looked pretty good to me at "2"ft and 20mph

                          I remember that I also thought about it later....If ANYTHING would have failed, I would have failed
