[QUOTE="Kismet, post: 328640, member: 8516"] Finally got all the pictures to load! Great Work. Questions: will that center seat let you row should (heavens forbid) the motor crap out on you? And where are the oars? Might put hangers/hooks along sides of hull for storing them. (no, I don't trust engines. :) ) Is the post of the center seat up far enough from the hull to avoid chafing it? You have some floatation to replace what you removed by making that neat compartment in the front seat, or are you figuring in the insulation board you put under the deck? Oh, and with the ...er...what is it? 110lb 25 hp engine?...and you in back, you have some idea of weight forward to balance the hull? Can you run an extended gas line under the deck and have it come out up front to hook to your tank? Would that be too much suction to ask of the engine? I don't know...just asking. And...purely because I'm odd, needs some whimsical icon decal...maybe Mr. Natural, by R Crumb, on the bow of the craft. I'm enjoying your build. [/QUOTE]
