Progress is moving rapidly at this point.

Deck is complete and boat is being painted this weekend. Leaning post/livewell has been received and is being installed this week.

I just ordered a new Garmin 340C fish finder, Airmar bronze 12 degree thru-hull transducer, VHF and antenna, and Bennett M120 trim tabs.

I pick up the Suzuki 115 next week when I'm in the Keys and will drop it off on the way back. If all goes well I should be in the water by the middle of the month!

More pictures coming soon!

Progress is not going as quickly as I hoped (builder has been delayed working on some "emergency" repairs for other customers). The deck is complete, however, and boat should be painted and reassembled by the end of this month. Engine rigging and installation of other items will follow soon afterward. I hope to have it done by mid-July (fingers crossed!)

Sometimes you have to be the squeaky wheel.  Keep after them.

The good news is that I'm in no real hurry. I just picked up a McKee Craft 14 on Saturday so I have something else to tinker with while I'm waiting on theAS!

Looking good - you'll have her on the water in no time now.

Nice, let me know what you think of the trimtabs, I put mine on and I hardly use them. So far I have only used them to straighten the boat with an uneven load and for some shallow water take offs. Other then that, the engine trim itself seems mor then sufficient.
