Well I tried to post before and am not sure if it worked. <br /> I think I am showing you all pictures of my boat before and after my resurection. <br /> There is nothing in this boat excluding electrics, hull and seat hardware that I have not re-made. <br /> This took me about 8 or 10 weeks of working 4 or five days a week to "finnish" (I will never be done ;) ). <br /> I think that learning to and upholstering all that was the hardest thing. <br /> When I start the next boat I hope I will be a bit quicker. It is hard to look all the time and not play! I did however just get back from a weekend on the mississippi around Prarie du Chen, WI, The upper miss is the best.

Re: before and after

this boat had a ski locker to begin with. I want to put it back, but I want to have the lid support itself with a lip or L-metal edge to hide and protect the carpet edge. has anyone seen these anywhere?

Hey how about that, there are really pictures this time!! Just kiddin'. Nice job. I like the two tone upholstery up front. <br />You can buy a prefab locker lid with frame and hinge that just slips into the hole. check overtons or use google. :cool:

Re: before and after

I have a bayliner I am in the process of rebuilding and plan to use a small 16 x 16 hale in the floor that was just foam to make into a small storage spot and will be building a compartment out of wood coated in epoxy. seems easy enough for someone who knows what the heck they are doing, anybody know anyone I can call.............
