[QUOTE="Sureshot, post: 123347, member: 1567"] TIME FOR AN UPDATE!! :mrgreen: The boat is stripped and primed. I have the paint but im waiting for it to warm up before I paint it. I removed the middle bench seat. I did all the frame work ( I used 2x2's and the simpson strong ties. Last night I screwed it into the boat. I have the waterproofer and I am going to waterproof it all today. I also bought my contact cement, carpet, and a couple tie plates to put the front deck together with. I finished my cuts for the decking and all I need to do is cut out my compartments. I was also thinking about using that clear waterproof sealant (indoor/outdoor) and going over all the rivets to insure no leakage. I thought it was a good inexpensive way to seal them. Ill probably end up running up to BPS today and getting my switch panel, and my hatch latches. I'm also going to splice my TM wire with whats in the picture below. Another thing is if I order the hinges from aircraft spruce, what size open width and size do I need? Its going to be a great day to get out in the garage and work on her. =D> Sorry about the crazy angles of the pictures. (theyre off my phone.) [/QUOTE]
