That is just beautiful! What a great feeling that is to put a boat back in the water for the first time. :cheers:

Looks amazing too :!:

Thanks all!

Quote from: "CLM65"
Looks great!  How many inches did you raise the deck?

+-2" toward the bow and +-1.5" in the stern. Don't remember exactly...

Quote from: "elite51203"
Looks really nice!

Do you remember what you used for the stringer material and where you got it?

1" 5# Corecell. Got it cheap from a boatbuilder buddy who got it thru Merritt Supply...

Boat looks small now.
