    The floor is mostly in the Razor, just the front most piece left. Whoever designed the stringer layout doesn't know how to use a tape measure. No two boards landed their edges on the same stringer, stringers were different heights, this thing is just poorly made. The front has probably about a...

    Took my dad to the er last night.

    Ok, super late update on this. He's had the targeted radiation treatments a while ago, and I took him to some follow ups this week. Another scan, mri I think, Monday and follow up with the doctor today. All of the spots have shrunk, there are a couple new ones, but they are so tiny the doctor...

    So far this week I've black gelled the area, sanded it down, and am now masking to do the flake. The flake isn't expected to show up until tomorrow, and if it isn't early in the morning I won't spray yet. The blue gel is expected Tuesday. In other news, the new guy was drilling through the...

    Plywood will last a long time if sealed properly, either csm and polyester resin or Old Timer's Formula ( a sealant the woodworking guys here came up with I think). Do not use treated plywood, the chemicals react with aluminum and cause corrosion.

    I finished the Nitro yesterday, Including a spot on the rear starboard corner of the deck which I forgot to take pictures of. Also finished grinding, glassed, and did some bodywork to the Skeeter.

    We used to have a set of mold for the little GW Invaders. The bosses used to work for them. The owner sold them a few years ago.

    Triton 175 rear deck removal

    I'm not exactly sure what style livewell you have, but many are plastic ones that have machine screws securing them to the casting deck. If this is the case for you, open the lid above the livewell and feel around the the livewell ceiling for the nuts.

    Doing the flake on the Ranger now. This time, instead of blacking out the bodywork under each color as I go, I gelled the whole spot yesterday so I could just sand it and flake over. I don't know why I never thought to try that, I was just taught to do it the other way and always did that. This...

    Triton 175 rear deck removal

    Lift up and get a feel for where it's held down, then poke around with a pick for an eternity until you find it. Since you're recarpeting anyway, why not just rip the carpet up from the casting deck? Have you taken the livewell bolts out? We have a Triton in now, but it's front and rear decks...
