I'm still second guessing having a rail. I do a lot of wreck fishing and a bow rail is a real pain in the butt!!!! And on the other hand my 5 year old will be fishing the most with me on a regular. I'll pm you in a couple days so I can think about it. It would be a great excuse to come up and have a beer!!!!!

Yeah the exact reason I always take them off. Va law says nobody can sit up there while underway nowdays...so its not worth the trouble to stumble over it!
Heck you can come have a beer either way...I want to come check your project out first hand....looking GREAT!!

My son and I did some sanding and some glass work on Sat. The transom is in pretty good shape. I would say it has about 5 years since it was replaced. There are a few places that need attention on it. The pics were taken for profiling purposes, thats why no mask...I made him wear long sleeve shirt and full mask when sanding!!
  PROUD CAPT!!!!!

He is 10...11 on July 1st. He has a 15' ThunderBird now. I couldnt pass up the deal on this old V and trailer So its a father/son project.
This thing had the gas tank in the console....FULL OF WATER!! The PO wasnt using it at the time but that thing had to weigh 300 lbs easy!!

Well on Sat we redid some patches on the hull. It looked like the PO had taken a 6" x 8' piece of crappy fiberglass cloth, dipped it in resin, slapped it along the bow/keel, waited 15 mins and went fishing! I was a little worried about what I would find, but it was just worn gel coat from years of beaching...wheeew!
Lots of sanding and gringing, some new glass and that is done. Tucked her in the garage last night....rain from Alberto is moving in today and I have some glass work to do in the bilge.... Cars out, V in
