Well, I am rehab'ing my boat. Its my late grandfathers boat, and it sat idle for about 10 years. This is the before pic... 
This is after we demo'd and cleaned... 
And this is the "Game Plan" for the final product... 
So, thats what is keeping me busy these days.. hope to have it ready for the water in a month or so. |

All right, another long day of "Boat Work", and I can honestly say, we are getting DAMN close. Bilge pump is in and working, wiring and new switch panel are mounted and functional. Seating is all secured and mounted and finished (except for the back on the Captain's Chair, but thats easy). Captain's Tower back cover is finished and bungied on for now, in case we need a few wiring tweaks before we are all finished. The back two sections of railing are repainted and mounted. The carpet trim pieces are all screwed down. All that is left is repainting and mounting the front rail sections, padding and upholstering the Captain's chair back piece, and finishing up getting the starter cleaned up and reinstalled. Very good possibility it might just get wet next weekend.... Now, the pics..
