Has anyone ever heard of

I have this boat I purchased used in the first place! Well it is a Fiberglass 16' Matthews, it is a Semi - V hull but squared off bow! The boat has a right side console with bench seat in the transom with storage area. The operator's seat has a storage compartment with the matching one for the passenger. Then in the bow area it has a bench seat with a hinge seat also for storage. The boat was made in New Bern, NC. by a Matthews & Cabinet Maker. This the only information I have found. What I like to know is how thick is the bottom and how I could mount items or run wires etc. Also the both sides have a channel area to put rods. The bow has a little area for mounting a trolling motor.
So if there is anyone out there who knows or own/owns one.
Thank You
Dennis

Well the direct tv may not work on it... LOL..

Sorry I could resist but did not..

Any way if you run wires I suggest a tube to run them in. The tube can be a flex tube or a even a garden hose. That way you can glue them in plece or even use some plastic clamps and very short screws to mount the tube.

I have seen one other down in the Dragon Run and it had a bow mount motor on some starboard. The starboard was bolted to the front over the front light hole. It had two side lights to replace the front marker light..

The hull I have no idea how thisk it is. How heavy is the boat?

I'm not sure how heavy it is! As for the thickness of the bottom to mount a trolling motor foot control. But thanks for the info anyway!
