After some of the posts here, like Jimmy's, JP's, Mikey's, Gert's, Buju, and Bob's, to name a few, I was hesitant to post pics. of my winter project. Their work is so far out of my league that I'm left thinking "crap, I could never do that," and, as was put in a post awhile ago, "damn, my boat just got uglier." However, I decided that I'd post up some pics. for the less-accomplished among us. I'm hoping my pics will be confidence boosting, leaving the less-accomplished thinking, "wow, that guy has no skills" and "my boat looks pretty good compared that." Happy Thanksgiving.
I'm going to redo the helm at some point before or during spring. For now, the aft deck is off to see what lies beneath. The rudder ports will come out and be rebedded, she'll get new deck supports and rudder boxes, and a few things cleaned up. As of yesterday, here's how she looked (yeah, I know, I suck at photography too). Two mufflers per side? I love these boats. A couple of hours with my makita, and she's apart. I love this site too. Looking at everybody's posts does inspire me to workoin my boat, and they're so helpful when I'm trying to figure stuff out. Thanks.
