Boat Pics

Here's some pictures of the boat work:



When I first got the boat, I knew I'd have to redo the decks eventually. 15 year old carpeting and plywood were starting to get a little bad:


After Hurricane Jeanne, though, the boat filled with water and rotted out the wood a little more, as well as just plain destroyed some things.


Taking off the decks:


Two stringers (fore-and-aft next to the big silver gas tank) removed, and all the deck:


New decks, painted, new seats (handmade by me! ;), a mounted cooler, an above-deck livebait well, lots of work, and here's the result:



I have some of the sides to complete in the back, some little things like putting in flush-mount rod holders, some cleanup, I have to put in the baitwell water pump and hoses. Little jobs, but it's working at this point.

Yeah, except it's 50 and raining today. I look at that background and drool right now ;)
