It is looking good! I like the aluminum framing you are putting in there? How wide is the hull? My current remodel is a 15x42 so I am curious to see what you are going to turn yours into. If you want to take a look at mine it is the Ethanw08 Jon to Crappie Cracker thread. Keep us updated on the progress!

Tonight I finish framing out the front deck and started welding up the back deck door /hatch. I plan on finishing the metal work this weekend and completely finishing the carpet and electrical for this entire project by next weekend! This guy is in a rush to get his boat back and I have a long list of people waiting to get theirs in the shop!

Going to be another amazing prowelder custom !
Thanks man. I've got some good news I just wanted to share. Our company Professional Welding is growing and I will be Leaving our original facility in the hands of my dad and brother. We just purchase a 9000 ft² building a couple blocks away And I will be venturing out on my own. This is big for me it will basically be my shop. I never in a million years could have imagined that we would have come as far as we have in the past 15 years, And at 33 years old I would be running my own business in this big of a shop! I am going to take the boats main stream through the company but keep them at a fair price. I am also going to be investing in some pipe and tubing benders and try to get into building towers and boat railings. Along with All of my clientele from the past 15 years and a couple of our big vendors. My goal for This year is to break even, But next year I want to push it to the limits!

Sounds great! Good luck, and Godspeed. Just don't get too big for the old tinboats. =D>
 
I made a lot of progress: finished electrical, almost done with front deck. Finished back hatch. Now all i have to do is the back deck on either side of the hatch, and cut the hole in the front for the hatch. Then it's time for carpet. Planning to finish this up tommorow!
