Great job! This is going to be winter '13 project for me... I'll definately be "borrowing" some ideas! Again, looks great, you should be proud!

Hey jvanhees, to be honest, I can't tell u how well the flooring holds up as she hasn't even made her maiden voyage yet, freakin wisconsin weather!! It "seems" durable but I haven't been walking all over it, dragging stuff across it etc... I didn't want carpet for most of the reasons u...

Can't believe you actually put those words into type for all to read! You were just begging the karma gods to come give you a swift kick in the can! And now the transom! #-o Anyway, great looking boat you have going on, can't wait to see her all finished up! p.s. great name for the boat...

Thanks pweisbrod :beer: now if the weather around here would just switch to spring...

Here you go NLaudy. Sorry it took so long, but you know how it goes, something always comes up... Anyway, it is a very simple set up. I took a piece of 90degree aluminum, cut it to length then drilled and riveted the piece onto the wall of the boat. It is not load bearing so it need not be super...

looks like you're doing a great job! Can't wait to see this progress. Next winters project will be a jon boat...

Thanks Slob-o! NLaudy, Right now, the lid just sits on top of the storage box. I think I am going to install a piano hinge on the inside lip. So the lid will open from the outside. I'll take some pics tonight of how I did the lid stop on the boat side and explain with the pics :beer:

Hey slob-o great thread and nice work on that live well! Where abouts in Wisconsin are u? I've spent many an hour up at Kendor since my project began! I'm down in Kenosha, hoping to get mine in the water Sunday, if the weather holds...

Well, time just keeps flying by, but she is almost finished at this time. My hope is to have her in the water Sunday 4-14 :D Here's what I've done since the last update. I added comments above pictures if needed

Thanks maestro! Getting so close!

Its been a while since I've updated this thread. Been busy working on her. Getting closer. I am always amazed at how challenging the simplest things can become. It has been a great winter project though! My goal is to have her ready by 3-28-13. Leaves me with just under 2 weeks. Here are some...

I'm looking to add "tunes" to my build as well, and found this at best buy. https://www.amazon.com/HMDX-HX-P230GY-Bluetooth-Wireless-Blackberry/dp/B007R6HUFI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1361552652&sr=8-2&keywords=jamz They are VERY loud, cheap, and sound decent. If you have a smart phone or bluetooth...
