Good job! That's a lot of work, my friend. I have a '73 Richline. It's a 14, but it only has two seats. Kind of a nice setup for fishing, but you can't put a whole lot of people in it. Bummer :wink: I have a 15 Evinrude for it that I am finally done going through, and I clocked it at 23.5 mph (gps) on the Intracoastal Waterway last weekend. That's me, my nine year old, a bucket of live shrimp, a cooler, three fishing poles, two tackle boxes, three gallons of gas, and all the stuff that the coasties require. Plenty fast for that hull, I think. It came with a bimini that the last owner put on it. He actually cut down a wider top to make it fit because the hull is somewhat narrow. I made new seat lids, too. I got a partial piece of marine ply and I used indoor/outdoor carpet and they came out good. Good luck with your project, and thanks for posting all the photos. I really like mine, though I'm thinking that a low deck forward of the seat will be next. There is no level surface up in the bow other than the little shelf for the anchor. My kid tried to throw a cast net from up there and nearly went overboard #-o
