Tuna - If you haven't bought everything . . . PM me. Bill Potter is selling off some inventory of the mini pilot consoles like the one I got . . . they are located (and made) at Waterline Systems in Portmouth, RI. His last email said that he was going to be selling them at his cost. I don't know the exact figure, but I'd think it'd be worthwhile looking into especially if you price out resin, fabric, core, windows (that open) and labor involved. Email [email protected] for the details. This pilot house pretty awesome. If you want to check it out . . . mine will be going in the 23 this week, so you can see what'd look like on a 23.

I sent him an email but if they are priced near the ones on the cape I am going to have to build it myself. I just got to many little things that amount to alot of money to finish up before I splash the boat in a month or so. Plus I am still trying to outfit the boat with electronics. I would like to see what it looks like on your boat however.

Got the Pilot house framed up this weekend with the help of a friend and his garage. Looks pretty good and is solid as a rock. Going to have to wait out the rain this week before I can start fiberglassing though.

Almost there! We started her in the driveway first and let her run off the hose for a while and all systems were good. We then took the boat on it's first shake down cruise on a lake close to home on Saturday. I did manage to ding the prop while loading on the trailer. Nothing major and thank god I wasn't in gear. I got all the electronics wired up and mounted. With the exception of the Fishfinder which is not being recognized by the GPS (combo unit) all are working good. Windows still are not installed but should be by the weekend. Spent yesterday chasing wires and cursing out the previous owners. Finally by the end of the day we had running lights, bilge pumps x2, and blower x2, all working off a brand new swith/breaker pannel. Still got to hide all the wires. Oh yeah, got the riggers mounted too.
