This job left the shop at the beginning of this month, but admittedly, I've been to busy to post as frequently as I would have liked.
Anyway, this boat was built for a customer in Northern Virginia. Boat is a 1756 G3, built as a tournament electric only boat. Boat was going to be mostly decked, save for a small lower area, and was to be complete with multiple Humminbird 1198s, Humminbird 360, 8.5' rod locker, 37 gallon livewell, etc.
Here's the boat when we started. New 1756 G3, with factory floor kit and aft hatch lid.
Now, we start building in the livewell and rod locker.
Then, we add one of the forward bulkheads.
And, a battery hatch.
Side tackle hatch and side deck piece. Note that the rod locker and battery hatch have a coaming around the perimeter, whereas the forward and side storage hatches don't. Reason is that the storage hatches will have a drop in box, which will have the coaming built in.
Now, we install the deck pieces on each side of the livewell.
Even get a few wires run.
At some point along the line, we have to build a couple drop in boxes.
Can't forget the hole for the recessed pedal tray.
All that's left is to carpet the rig, and install all of the accessories. We'll skip to finished pics at this point.
Hatches have gas springs holding the lids open.
Red LEDs on the deck, and white LEDs in the hatches.
On pickup day.
As you can see, the boat is pretty accessory heavy. Boat has a 101 Fortrex on the bow, 80 pound Traxxis on the transom, 2 Humminbird 1198s, Humminbird 360 view, 6 AGM batteries, 2 Minn Kota 345 chargers, 2 Minn Kota Deckhand 40 anchor winches, and quite a bit more.
Can't forget the FishOn Fabrications recessed pedal tray.
