    Maiden Voyage and sea trials complete! The old tower of power hums along beautifully, and gets up and scoots! Very little if any water seepage, I am sure some water was in it from the rain storm last night.

    Yep, cedar. When my grandpa died I took a trailer load of reclaimed cedar. This has been a good use of it. Plus reminds me of Grandpa.

    Color is coming! Although, the gray primer does look pretty good as is. I found the original color code to match my old truck. Water Fall Blue.

    Even just drilling a few holes in the L bracket might work. Thanks for the inspiration
