Yep lol all good tho making real good progress. We’re going to spend about 8 hours in there Saturday sanding and grinding. Hopefully next week start putting in bulk heads and gel coating down there.

HOLY CRAP! That's insane. More power to you brotha. Love this thread!
I see you posted the pics of that Gun Phil redid. Just for your consideration - I really like how he does these cabins. He'll do a half cover girl (no bed) and bring the zipper part up closer to where the bed would start. Then through the zipper he puts a porta potty, benches and storage. It turns the bow portion of the cabin into an enclosed head / changing room / storage room. Very good use of the area and you could put hefty bulkheads where the zipper portion is. It's similar to the way Robs Tiger is too except Rob has an actual door if I'm not mistaken. Just another option for you to think about since you're going that direction.

Thanks for the pics that’s exactly what I’m thinking. Just happy to have that liner gone. I’ve been working on it every available hour lol. Anyone know best place to get tanks from? I thought I had a place turns out there a super long wait. Anyone thoughts on moving port Moter forward 12 inches. That cabin is going to be very light. I am going to shorten the fuel tanks and put them all the way up to that step bulk head. That will take 30 inches from the rear off.
