32' Midnight Repower
Here is whats happened so far. We removed the old engines and bracket, sanded the entire inside floor and gunwales in addtion to the cuddy, filled and sanded all the through hulls in the transom. We got the first coat of building primer on the inside yesterday. The bracket has been bead blasted, primed and painted.

update
Here is an update. We continued with the primer and did our last coat of top coat last night. The transom is done, check out the thickness of the transom. Some time this week we will ad texture to the floor (could be tricky). The Marine machine steering arrived and we started setting that up. The bracket is done. Here are some photos:

Oh yeah, those engines and lower units are going to be for sale if anyone is interested.
|
Do you have an email so I can contact you about the motors?
Thanks |
Sweet project and so far it looks real clean. Best of luck and can;t wit to see the final job done. Great to keep these nice strong old CC's running.

Drilled all the through hulls and bracket mounting holes in the transom. We are going to route the steering and trim hoses down through the bracket and through the transom, so the only thing going to the transom are the two rigging tubes. We textured the hatch covers, and the Bracket and one engine are on as of yesterday, but forgot the camera. I will get some more pics tonight
