Right on. This is now my current build. I've had this boat since May 2015. Got a little bit done on it but then stopped for the winter and to obsess on an online store project. I wasn't getting anywhere on that so yesterday I decided that enough is enough. I'm done with that. Maybe permanent maybe not but it's past time to work on the boat. So, here we go.
Here's what I had to start with:
Taken at the POs residents
Now that I have got her home
First thing I did was fill her up with water to find any leaks. Then I put a piece of wire through the one hole that showed up so I could easily find it for repair, inside and outside
Well at this time I was also working on building my patio deck, and needed to go pick up some 16' deck board. Problem was, my utility trailer was only 8' long. So:
Then I decided I liked the layout that the PO had started and decided to keep it. Thus time for pink foam under the floor. Sorry about the sideways pics.
Next up was the front casting deck but I don't have pics of that yet.. I'll take some today. I still have to cut the hatches out and get or make some lids for them. there will be one on each side of the seat. I'm also considering adding about 3' to the deck for some move around room. One of the batteries will be up there and the cranking battery I believe will be under the back casting deck opposite of the fuel tank.
A few days ago I made a rough cut of the back deck but still need to cut about 1/4" off each side to loosen it up a touch for the carpet to fold under. I have also bought a couple of the new seats to put in.
Stay tuned folk. More to come.
