Looking good.

Here's where we're at. Haven't seen the hull sides yet.



Black bottom paint

Excellent.

very nice.  I own the same boat, 1999.  I repowered with a 200 suzuki a few years ago...furthest i've taken it out is about 25 miles off shore (NW corner stellwagen bank) on a calm day....boat this size gets thrown around quite a bit in rough seas.  I've had it for about 5 years and recently put in a new deck (replaced balsa core with divny cell)...I have considered the T top but concerned about the wind resistance.   

I have an EZ loader, Bunk Style Trailer which i really like. 

Would be interested to know what size tuna you were able to pull into the boat.....

I just made a replacement for my 245 Osprey. Cut it out of 1/4" HDPE and used a router to clean up the edges. Most of the original was mostly intact, which allowed me to use it as a template. I needed to add a few additional holes so it was worth it to me to make my own.
