Default it's been a while...

have done NOTHING to the boat in 2 whole years!!!! Well, I'm FINALLY getting my hydro steering installed as we speak!!! And I actually started on my spray rails finally too!!!! Got both pieces of teak rough cut to size. Now I just have to get them sanded and even. Then do some pre-driling for screws. Got to sand off the old bottom paint at the chines to prep for epoxy. The hardest part, now that I'm finally starting should be getting the two sanded and even for each side. Then just epoxy and screw to the hull, wet out some fiberglass tape to wrap the wood and join to hull. I'm planning on just leaving the screws in, and just glassing over them. After all that, then sand fair and re-apply some bottom paint and I should be good to go. Lets just see if I can squeze enough free time to get it done by next summer!!!
