Brutha Bear! WOW!...
No wait...
WOW!!!
You are making this into one seriously fine fishing machine...SIR!
The mad skills you possess are definitely showing!
Beautiful paint work, clean, efficient layout, beautiful finish work!
Love it!

BTW, if you decide to do the sharks mouth, you might consider adding the P-40's V-12 exhaust...

Thanks Brutha Gus!

I dig the exhaust but prolly stick to just the mouth my hull ID will end up where you had it added... Very cool though.... Always loved WWII aircraft... I think I'm going to give it a go...

Awesome ! But that just might run the fish off though ...

Maybe brutha! Kinda cool you had the same idea about the shark mouth... I've been thinking about it for months.....

Hey Gang,

I finished all the work on the transom. Went through hull with transducer, added mounting (plastic board) for power terminals and electric start module. Also installed corner braces, and anchor light. Bilge pump and it's through hull is installed also... I should start wiring this weekend. I once again ordered all my bulk wiring supplies from Greg at gregsmarinewiresupply.com

Some pics from weekend progress.

You have really turned her into a thing of beauty ! Everything well planed and executed !
JL III maybe ?

 

[Tnstratofam]

What a set nice set up. She's turning out great. Your attention to form following function is spot on. She should really turn heads, and the fish won't know what hit em!

Awesome. Clean and simple. Nice lights.
