Hey thats some good work! I like the side folding tops on the bench

I needed to do something for storage I have a small boat and a large tackle box so I'm going to put all my primary tackle into the sleeves and leave the rest at home plus I now have a cooler for beer that's 22" long 8 deep and 10 wide

Well I finished the last floor today I also cleaned up the original build plate that year wasn't stamped on it was printed and has now faded but for nostalgic reasons I reinstalled it on the new transom boards with the original nails
