Yep. Thankfully me and a bird dog are way under the weight on the placard haha

All set and ready for the shakedown cruise. Went well, the motors are a little old but the old Johnson 3 horse and the Wizard trolling motor both worked well. Looking forward to duck season - everyone be safe out there!

IT FLOATS! I got it out on the water for the first time since late duck season last December and she is ready for this year's duck season. Shoe Lake, Bald Mt. Recreation Area The finished project and renovated "Perfect Storm"

Not too high quality of a picture but these are the navigation lights with a night time shot. I think the LEDs will work out well. The mast light is on the port side at the stern of the boat.
