[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 303709, member: 7544"] Well the stars were in a favorable alignment for working on boats these last couple of days so..... OK, OK, so maybe that is a bunch of hooey about the stars but Mother Nature decided to smile on me and give me a couple of decent days for working outside. Temps in the low to mid 40's, dry, and no rain in the forecast. Between that and waiting on some material on my current job, I got to do a little work on the boat. I spent more time trying to figure out where and exactly how I was going to construct what I wanted but I'm almost there now. Anyways, I spent several hours framing up my front deck. What I've decided on so far is that I'll have a hatch on either side of the seat with the battery in the one on the left and the other will be for storage. So here's a few pics I took after I finished with the framing. I can't figure out a good way to put a hatch in the front half, so I stuck some extra bracing in there and will leave it closed off for now. I may go back and change that later on after I fish with it like this for a while.

I cut the rungs out of the ladder this time and just used the side pieces because I needed them farther apart for my battery compartment.
