I snuck into the paint shed, she is primed and getting some pinholes filled.

Tomorrow is a big day for me. As hard as it was, I was able to keep out of the paint shop. I spoke to the painter and the boat will be ready for pickup tomorrow. I realize the true test is when the boat is rigged out and is everything you hoped for, but for me this step is just as big. The satisfaction of three years of work, hope it's all worth it. Kinda feel like I'm ten years old on Christmas Eve!

Well, it wasn't cured yet so I couldn't take her home. I got a good look at her and I'm super happy with the result. I shot a couple of quick pics. Here she is ... more to follow tomorrow.

Here's what I started with...


Here's the end before paint...


And the Finally...

Looks very nice except for that smudge on the port side.

Oh wait - that's on my monitor, not the boat!!!  :oops:  :whoo:

Looks great man.  :nSalute:  :thumleft:

Started rigging the console today, made a tray for the batteries that will have ratchet straps to hold down the batts. Wiring will start tomorrow. This part is so much better than, grinding and fairing.




You can see it a little better here

I'm trying to locate some Deka Intimidator AGM batteries but it's either mail order (which I don't trust UPS to bounce it nicely all the way here) or drive 80 miles each way to Ft Myers to get one  :91:

Got the recessed dash portion done today, looks great. Half way through the wiring, tomorrow I'll tie it all together.

Today I finished the dash and got the rod holders and flush mount cleats mounted. Tomorrow the bracket will be attached.
