Went to visit the V-20 today to check on the progress so far. I brought the camera for all of you picture hounds. So far the deck has been installed and glassed in. He used a 2X4 frame screwed and glued to the stringers to support the deck (a little overkill I thought but it gonna move at all). The 2X4's are epoxied to the transom also. An 8X12 hatch will be installed for bilge access. I opted to make a removable bait station in the center section which explains the cut out area in the center. That is another project in the works. An access hatch will be put into front facade for access to the transom and mechanical areas.ENJOY :) :)

nope,not yet!iv gotta get you all some. iv been pittling on it ,tying up some loose ends. i put all my teak trim back in last weekend . ive finished up the trailer too.i made some gunwale step pads out of some old mahogny that came off my old boat. I had a 1958 Colonial with twin chrysler 225sixes.it was given to me,but i had to move it . I carried it about 30 miles with a 15 hp motor ,close to home where a bad storm sank it . ilater brought it back up and scraped it. it had mahogany interior and a pecan hull. iv used a lot of wood off of it .... i recovered the panels that covered the saddle tanks,dont look too bad for a jack leg. Ill get some pics this week. i guess i need to ask MJ for a gallery,and i might need a little help posting the pics.
