Looking good. I hate storing fenders - they are bulky and awkward.....

Great job Dan . I have an unrelated question related to my thoughts on staggering my flat deck . How much smaller volume wise did you shrink your fuel tanks and how much shorter did you make ? Thanks RG

I keep forgetting to take those measurement for ya !
used to be 140 gallons each now 60 gallons each I think .
I have 100mile range which is good enough for me.

They now they end at the bolsters .
I can take measurements

Thanks Dan , I am trying to shrink the cockpit the least amount that I have to. I am guessing I will have to shrink tanks about a foot so given what I see in your picture they will still be over 100 gallons . Cheers RG .

wow came out great!!! awesome idea especially love the booster seat frames!!!!

quick question on the fuel tanks...we have a 1994 which has access panels to the tanks. Your boat looks like it has a different setup? You had to cut the floor out?
