Cap is off

[jasoncooperpcola]

I just realized something I need to do.....

The infloor livewell HAS got to go! I dislike it almost as much as the bottom paint. Going to get a BFH now and fix it.

Bring her on down! I got the lift set up and ready for action! I thought it would be worse than what it actually was. The hardest part is the splashwell where the motor mounts, its glassed to the transom. Other than that, its as simple as start lifting and disconnecting wires, and hoses as you can get to them. Faster than reaching thru the rod boxes and getting ate up with fiberglass.

MJ can i get 'rebuild time" added to my thread title? This is going to be my rebuild thread.

This weekends project is cleaning the garage out. Also plan to remove the cuddy liner.

has anyone built a cradle for a V20? the guys on pensacola fishing forum are pushing hard for it, mainly to prevent a hook in the hull.

In case, I have not said it yet, Thanks for everybody's replies and advice.
My computer absolutely hates photobucket , but seeing how well they show on here makes it worth it. Besides for some reason my camera pics wont upload straight on the manage attachments bar.

Depending on how well this project goes, I may keep the 18 Fisherman, I have some ideas for her. Possibly cutting the sides down all the way around and turning her into a flats/bay boat with a custom layout and casting decks. And she might be getting the 2.5L Mercury 200 if I repower the V20. Hell it weighs the same as a 150 JohnnyRude.
