Ok. Still burt out on redoing the resto travel logue that once existed on the CGOA forum. I will eventually catch up on reposting here. Please do feel free to ask questions. The project has brought a wealth of info, and if done again could avoid some mistakes. A's to Q's. What did I do special? Well lots of things. I used all composite materials instead of wood. Seacast transom...Polyurethane board stringers, floor, and floor plan ie ski locker/kick pads/& seat boxes. Seats are a bayliner aftermarket replacement that slide on a track. Also closed cell foam fill underfloor. Interior all gel coated and webbed for texture(and her pleasure). Engine is origonal Evinrude 115. Runs like a top. How fast? Speedo indicates just a hair under 50. That's plenty fast for me. Also went with all stainless steel hardware

Stepping on your new painted bow with sandy sandals tell me you didn't!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI did. It's not new, it's origonal gelcoat with all the glory of 35 years of scratches and blemishes. Recently polished and waxed. That stuff will look good forever even with a little beach sand wear. Like it is, I can have fun without worries of a little scratch.
ReplyDeleteSo have you cracked the nut?
LOL I did crack the nut but I didn't realize the nut is attached in the back. Im not sure if I know where to cut it properly. Weather has been terrible here so I haven't been able to do much except paint badges and polish metal. Wish I had a big garage like steve. Your boat looks great for the years. I'd love to see some of the inside pics. I just may come down someday when Im done that river looks sweet. Praying for warm weather here.
