I really thought someone would ask about the weird shaped holes in the back wall.

They are for flush mount Perko switches.

Mostly fresh, brackish with some regularity, salt 2/3 times a year.
We run down to San Francisco bay once in a while (probably more often now that I have new motors)

Made a trip out the gate to Half Moon Bay a couple of years ago. (160 miles round trip, cruising, 80 gallons gas total) :-)

Unwrapped all my powder coated seat bases, finish fit, and waiting for seats.

All passengers get "Oh Sh*t" handles.

Drivers seat adjust, maybe I can get Shorty (my better half) to drive it.
