Noli, As soon as i mount the fenders, they are just sitting there in the picture.. Thanks Ron, i will take a picture of the winch. I welded the handle on. Sometimes they come up missing at the ramp?

300 in welding supplies
100 in lights
250 in fenders and step mounts
So 6 k in materials. I am now up to 110 hours in it.
Only the fenders left to mount.

Awesome work Kirk!!! So do you feel like tackling an aluminum (possibly steel hybrid) gooseneck or 5th wheel trailer for my 46 Cig???

can you take a photo from the transom facing forward on either port/stbd side?

I'd like to see how the hull-sides clears the trailer wheel wells.


Thanks in advance.
