Im jealous! Nice work!!!

I admire your stick to it attitude. My boat is going through a restoration, although not as detailed as yours. You gave me a lot of good ideas. Thanks for that.

It's taken some persuasion here lately. You hit a point where you fix a boat or just walk away from it. Was in to deep to walk away. Now it's on the right track and about to hit the water. It won't be 100% done and there are things that would have been done differently. It's a solid boat no more rot. now with all new power, 1450 trans and fresh drives. All new electrical system and rigging. Even LED trim indicators with the electronic senders. Could have had a newer boat or a bigger boat but would have all this new stuff. It's been a long road for all involved with it a bit more then we all expected but it's almost time to ride now. And some great work can be shown off.

Can't wait to see it. It's awesome that you have stuck to it and kept going.

Mine is sort of the same you get to a point of no return and you can moth ball it, sell it or keep going. All of them cost you a ton of money but only one will give you the satisfaction you were seeking in the first place.

Getting paint and clearcoat. This is a sprint to make tickfaw and shake it out!!!!!!

caseyh 04-19-2017 10:41 AM

The sprint to finish the boat befor tickfaw just hit a wall. Ran into getting the seats recovered had a just guy lined up and his Sewer quit on him. Called TMP they were too backed up (really wanted to use him) went to another place across from my shop and he said ok no problem you may get them back by that Thursday of the run..... now kicking my self for taking them apart to check for rot and waiting to get the back seat back to do it all at once. Tried putting the old covers back on and ripped one also.

Tom A. 04-19-2017 01:17 PM

See if you can just get the front bolsters done.

If not, we got room on the 'toon! LOL

caseyh 04-19-2017 02:49 PM

Trim ram also messed up today. Need a New TRS starboard side external line trim ram.

The shop is going to do the two from bolsters I just don't know if they'll be done in a week

Team Archer 04-20-2017 03:25 PM

Outstanding!!!!!

Ironmanwb 04-27-2017 02:35 PM

VERY NICE.... So they do get finished if you actually work on them.........maybe I should try it.

frickstyle 04-27-2017 02:44 PM

Very cool casey. This brings back alot of memories when my project was going on. This is when you really start to get excited and the pain and misery starts to wear off (or gets a little more tolerable). Good thing you stuck with it, the next two years will be a lot of fun running the boat, tweaking, and making it yours. Probably be the nicest bullet out there. I can appreciate what you've done, it's a thankless project but will bring you a lot of pride and joy. Cool stuff.

Tom A. 04-27-2017 03:59 PM

Looking Great!!!

Nate5.0 04-27-2017 04:37 PM
