Thanks Rob!

Today the boat went back on the trailer. It was a great step in the process.
Pics of the maneuver:







I was so excited I decided to cut out the transom. Another big moment!
I used the mercruiser template and then used a 1" hole saw to make all the curves and corners.

Finally, a mock up of the bravo one gimble assembly:



This weekend I will lower the engine on and start to fabricate the engine mounting crossmember. Also, I will see how the lightning headers fit. I mocked up a header to take some rough measurements:

how much cool stuff do you have?? i see a nice fat tire on a fox body on the lift and another one winking from under the car cover! boat is coming along very nicely my friend!! thinking this summer for getting her wet?

Very Exciting!!!

Looking good!!! Isn't it nice when you start finally putting stuff together.

Great job bro!!!

Another big progress day yesterday.

Rigged up a laminated beam and mocked up the engine in the boat.

The lightning headers will clear my hatch by 1/2 inch.

Now I need to fabricate motor mounts.

great following your progress, nice shop, keep the pics coming.

Mocked up the hydraulic steering. K-planes are next.
