Was just now cutting the Starboard and my neighbor came up and said "if you got any leftover......" (I quickly replied) "no,ain't gonna have any leftover,gonna use it all" and smiled.
He did to.

I was going to mount to the dash, then I hate to make more holes? But I like it on the throttle, so what I did was tape it in a few places and decided I liked it on the throttle arm, I used a wire tie and its perfect, works almost like a stock one! ;D

I am going to pick up another one soon, I hate having to get in and out the boat to tilt up and down, going to mout this one on the motor is self or transom?

This is what you need to cut Starboard

I (mostly) followed the instructions while ruff cutting the floor hatches and cuddy panels. When it got to the fine work of fitting out of lazyness got the battery saw out.
This thing cuts long, fine, etc, better than anything else.
The fact that it's low rpm does the trick.

DELAYS, DELAYS.
Told Reel possibly a couple of weeks before splashdown, well that didn't happen.
While starting to reassemble steering and other stuff, found the backboard to the steering to be too weak to support it. So I had to tear it out and replace it.

And not to meantion another excuse was ts Barry.

Well at least I'm still progressing.
Got the tanks installed but not attached to the floor yet.

And did like Reel and MJ said by moving the gas vent to above the rubrail.

In the original vent location, instead of filling the hole I just put a new one in. Hell $6 each side is easier and cheaper than fixing the holes. ;)

Some pics so far.

No that red oxide color isn't staying on the glove box.
Fred brought it over with some bimini hardware. That's the original box, belive it or not!
Oh and the seats aren't for that boat.

I have come to the realization that I'm not going to complete it the way I want, so I'm just going to get it to the point of "useable" to then see what changes I'll need to do.
"Splashdown" will be redefined as "test run", when that happens.
