Well I puled the toon for the 6 month maintenance and have started the rear sun deck. I mentioned this before and there seemed to be some interest. Today I built 2 boxes for the side sections. One on each side of the motor housing. I will take some pictures tomorrow and will show progress as I proceed. I have a few things to figure out yet but it is coming along nicely just as planed. This will probably end up as three separate hinged sections. I was planning on one large top but it will be too big to lift easily for access to my fuel tank and the motor. These are the things I still need to figure out.
Till tomorrow.
Oh BTW I did the maintenance and all I still need to do is replace one Zerk fitting. The thing just won't seal around the grease gun. Not a biggy. Fresh oil, lower unit grease, waxed the motor cover, sprayed inside with WD40, new oil filter, plugs. She will be ready to go. I will probably leave her on land for a couple months till the weather arms a bit. We don't enjoy it when its cold.
UPDATE:
Here is the start of the process.
