Looks Good! I had a 15' Monark as my very first boat! Then I moved to a few fiberglass boats, and finally just bought another tin boat about a month ago! Lots of good memories from my Monark!

sunday we got back from playin at the beach and i got a few things done.
i am going to cover the wheel well covers in smoked blue carpet.. the bunks have been covered in black. i hope the blue blends in well. any one have any idea of a secondary safety strap can be a chain or nylon strap w/clamp.

Super job Brian =D> I like the skirt idea for cutting down road grime!
Let me know when you want to replace the carpeted ones with Diamond
Plate....I've got a few pieces laying around here.

hey jerry, i thought i should put carpet since i had already bought it.
but since the boat is somewhat smaller than the trailer , it never comes close to the
boat. i have since painted the boat which i like , but i have had a buddy
offering to paint it for resonable price . it will be painted with automotive paint .
dark blue with a blue flake /metalic. i am dropping it off sunday 11/13.

well, the paint i rolled on with a small diameter roller came out flat. i really didn't like it. so i went with a automotive paint with lots of clear. here is the end results.the charge for the paint was $135.00 was not in my budget...
