Very Nice Work!!!Crazy amount of WORK...but when that boat is finished you will have so much sense of accomplishment, you willhave a hard time ever parting with it. I still have a 78 Switzer I rebuilt from the split hull & deck.....Not even close tothe amount of work you have...Looks great man.

Still waiting on steering parts so unfortunately no testing for me this weekend. Heres a few pictures of my new dash. A big thanks to Kirk @ Elite Marine for all the Livorsi gauges. Had them in my hands in less than 2 days and at a great price. Also a pic of my almost finished engine compartment. Still have a bit of tidying up to do, and of course run all my steering hoses, etc.

Well, I didnt make it on the water this weekend either. My local connection on a hydraulic helm fell through. Thats the only thing I need to hit the water now. I did manage to get the hatch (frame only) mounted and made a bracket for the electric hatch to mount to. Hopefully tomorrow I will get the upholstery on it and all wired up. Give some color to this boat! I also got the external rams attached and the tie bar. I'm missing a couple of bolts but threw in some temporary ones for mock up purposes. Still have to mount the hydraulic thru-hulls and run a few lines. I kept trying to sneak out of work early to get some of this done this week, but just too much to do. Heres a couple of pics.

Got my hatch cover cut down, re-sewn, and installed on the 292 hatch. working out some issues on my hatch motor, but just about there. Mirrors should be done early next week. Time to polish up the handrails and cleats and get them re-installed. thanks for looking.

Love you choice for your sunpad upholstry, for obvious reasons ! Keep up the good work. I might have to take a trip down to Peoria, to check your boat out in person.
