    Thanks for taking the time to watch my video! I bought my boat 2 years ago from L&L Marine in Defuniak Springs, Florida. The boat was originally manufactured in Titusville where they make a huge variety of Gheenoes. Every modification you see in this video is original in design. Feel free to duplicate and leave comments below if you have any new ideas for all those Gheenoe lovers out there! Hope y'all enjoy!
    I'd also like to thank Tony Pascual Jr. for filming and editing this video for me! Great person to work with!

    You’ve managed to change a plain ole Gheenoe into a work of art. Outstanding craftsmanship as well as thoughtfulness.

    Man when you pulled out that drawer from the stern, I completely lost it! Great job!!

    I have the same boat, but I put a 15hp 2 stroke yamaha on it. It's rated for 10hp but the 15 is MONEY!!! the 2 stroke 15 hp is about the same weight of a 10hp 4 stroke. PS: great video and mods. I don't have the know how or skill to mod my gheenoe like you. Fabulous job.

  • @markdalton3834
    @markdalton3834 Před 4 lety

    I really like the stern work you did. Covering the top at the rub rail is a great way to deflect any water that might want to ruin your day, from a runaway wave cracking over the stern. I'm going to try that but take it up to the bench with a hinge across the mid point and a lip to deflect any water that makes it that far. And the drawer, of course. Awesome job on your 15.4!

    Great job Shannon! Well planned. I'm from Lafayette (all my family still lives there) and I moved to Florida 12 years ago and was introduced to Gheenoes. So many folks use them here. They even put poling platforms on some of the ones who fish the shallow flats. You can look through my videos and check out a tunnel hull Jon boat I made with road signs! Cajun ingenuity at it's finest! Lol

    Great build. I had the same boat but I put a Yamaha 20hp on it. I could do 25 mph in it. I found it a bit tipsy with that motor, battery, and a 6 gallon tank all in the rear of the boat. I sold it and got a Santee 16 foot boat. It is perfect with that motor because the transom is a lot wider. I can get it up to around 28 mph with one person. I use it more than I use my Ranger!! It is the perfect set up for around Lafayette.

I will probably be using some of your ideas on my next build.like the cup holders the reinforcements everywhere the extra rivets and the use of that small space in the front for the battery. Thanks a lot
