I will be out behind Two Mile on Sat trying for that first Striper. I have the little boat in the water. We are almost finished the Aqua 70 project. Some finishing touches and we are ready for the motor. Probally going with a 70 Yamaha. It should be perfect for outback and calm days in the ocean. We will post some pictures soon. SEE YA!

Looks VERY nice :!:  :!:
That's some serious wood on the front casting deck - good job on the routing on the top board.  Is that mahogany?

Congratulations!!!

Done has such a sweet sound to it... and such a sweet result!  It's projects such as yours that keeps me on my toes and pushing forward with my projects.  Hope you have a right proper re-christening party (with Champagne) as she eases into the water.  Bring the camera!

I like the grab rail on the console. Are those LED lights on the side of the console? If so where did you get em?

Does anyone know where we can purchase "top mount" controls for a 115hp 1997 Evinrude w/power tilt?
     We picked up a 1997 Evinrude with under 75 hours on it and it is in perfect condition.  We will post some pictures soon.

Try a search on "Binnacle" controls on ebay for that model (OMC)

Teleflex makes a good universal control that fits most all motors and has the trim switch built into the handle.
