The New Guy's Wife's Boat!
Hey Crew.
Thought I might try and show you a shot of my Wife's boat. I designed it for use on the Mississippi River and we had it custom built by Kann Mfg. in Guttenburg Iowa. It's 100% aluminum with 1/4" bottom, 3/16" sides and 1/8" cabin. 220hp Merc I/O. Hope you like her!!

Hey Guys! Glad you like the boat and thank you for the kind words! I'll try and post a few more pictures ASAP. Izona is 28' long. 8' wide. 24" sides. 6'4" headroom in wheelhouse, and about the same in the lower cabin. We used a V-6 220hp fuel injected Chevy Merc I/O Bravo II drive. We trailer her all the time and she stays on her trailer in the shop while I'm on the road! The interior is not 100% finished yet, but that's another story! Sorry about the quality of the pictures.

You should make the table fit into some brackets on the side of the wrap around bench and have cushins made to fit on the bench and then the back pieces fill in on the table top to make it into a bed. Send more pixs. Welcome aboard! Marty

Hey Crew!
Again, thank you for the kind words. The table will in fact make into the bed. The rails are made but not installed yet! Check the link above for the build pictures!! That is my Buddy Dave Wilson's web-site the Blue Heron! Lots of boating info! Check it out!! I have hundreds of build pictures, but those are the best ones! Tim
