Molestation of a 23

Getting closer to completion. The back bulkhead is glassed in and they are fairing everything. Almost ready for primer.

Now a bit of fitting things where they should go

Your boat is coming along nicely!

My 74 has the last few characters of the HIN scribbled on the back of the cap and this note about rigging on the bow.

Thanks for the compliment. I can’t wait for it to get done. Funny how they made notes on the parts 45 years ago

Everything is getting closer to completion. Transducer is getting glassed in the hull. Boat is off the trailer. Cap is back off the boat so painting can start.

[Kwaugh5p]

Painting has begun. Almost finished. Colors will be dark blue hull white bottom and white interior.

A little bit of color makes all the difference in the world. Cap will be primed today painted tomorrow after that the non skid will be painted. Getting closer.

Well the boat is home. Just need to go back for the console and leaning post. Got the 1st portion of run rail installed. The fun begins
