Bow Pulpit Build

nymack66 · #1 09-24-2009, 10:23 PM

I refuse to pay the ridiculous price for a Bow Pulpit so I built my own and one for Ridge Runner as I promise in a previous post.
No screws (the four you see was removed after the resin set ) just mat and resin and gelcoat ..
Started with Ply and resin and mat

Sanded & Sanded, Gel then buff ..

Ridge yours is to the left

Working on a bench seat for the splash well and two additional bucket seats ..

How fortunate am I to have found this site and Nymack. The picture taking is unreal. I wish I had taken the time. Giant thumbs up. Nymack you have a pm. Looks great.

Be careful you have no idea the crazy things I come up with when I am bored :)
I must say the Bench seat is giving me a run for my money , I kept sanding the edges off and I am angry but came up with an idea to resolve it. I will post pictures and explain the issues in another post so hopefully if anyone is crazy as I am to take on such a task..Hey you indirectly started the "bench seat" idea after I saw yours

They look great!! I love the wood but hate the up keep, I went with Starboard two 3/4 bolted together as I had it left over They work awesome!!
One thing Hammer did was to use a tilting roller and I wish I had, makes letting the anchor go very easy when alone!!

Keep up the good work!

That is going to be my next project, as i do a lot of bottom fishing, i might add a windlass too, i don't know yet, i had it on skiff and worked out great.

MJ - Nymack sent me the link where you guys built that one out of Starboard. Nice work. I made a shelf and a face for the underside of my console with the stuff.
Nymack - I tried to send you a pm. For some reason I can't submit it.
I'll call.
