So at this point I have finished foaming all the voids under the deck, primed, sanded and put the cap back on. I will be shooting the paint this weekend on that. I still have a good amount of work on the console before it is ready for paint. Still need to shape a piece of mahogany for the dash, and then time to put all the pieces back togather. Almost there, knock on wood. Upholsterer will be done with cushions and canvas top at the end of next week.

Looking good Tartuffe. Nice job!!

[tartuffe]

Thanks Destroyer, its been a labor of love for sure!

Been a really busy few days. Painted the cap, painted the floor, started filling in old holes in console and shaped the mahogany for the dash and went ahead and made another hatch for the console glove box. I had to build a bracket to hold the hydraulic steering helm under the dash in order accomplish having a flush mount steering wheel to hide my old hynautic helm.

Cap paint I am very satisfied with, nice shine. Last time I painted the deck I used interlux brightsides with the non skid additive. It came out great, I guess to easy because this time I used Petite Easypoxy and did not have very good results. I am still contemplating if I want to try it again or just roll with it till I redo it in a couple years. I'll wait to get it out in the sun and see just how bad it is.

Skunkboat is very jealous of that black & white hull. Beautiful.

[step up here]

Judging by the pic's i see more than a labor of love. Their is a very professional accomplishment here. Excellent job!

Looking good. I contemplated painting mine black on the hull sides with a white cap. Decided to go all white.

[cterrebonne]

is that a bigger than stock tank you put in there?

[tartuffe]

Yeah, It had a 60 gallon, I was able to get a 72 gallon in there since the cap was off and realistically probably could have gotten 100 or more if I gone the custom tank route.
