well iv been here before but have not been active on the site for a wile now. I just signed up for the Navy and i leave in july for boot camp. So i want to use the time i have left to enjoy my seacraft. I wish i had more time to work and enjoy it more but ill make the best of the time i got. here are some pics of what iv done.

here are the rod holder trims that go under the gunwales, im missing two of them.

the magic of flitz!!!

i have to see if i want to put the leaning post on or not, i originally wanted to move the console forward and make it slimmer but i dont think i have the time for that

let me know what you guys think.

You might want to ask if someone here would volunteer to board your your "vessel vessel" in your absence; say give it regular walks, train it raise fish and just generally behave and grow up a little while you are gone. Kind of like a Big Brother thing!

NOT!

BigLew will they also restore it for me??? if yes im all for it!!!!!!

I wish!

here is what i did last night, bow light instaled the radio, and this morning i was able to put the leaning post on before going to work.

With the leaning post now i have NO ROOM on the aft. on the bright side if i put a gimble on the grab rail of the post and sit backwards i have a fighting chair!!!!

looks good luna, the pop ups are always classy and clean, gray is a great color, doesnt show dirt thats why they paint battleships gray. good luck!

Thanks Goggleeye,

Today i finished putting in a pair of 6x9 speakers, the 6 1/2 did not fit the deck plate holes i had on the consel, iv been thinking about painting the hull since it needs it BAD. I was looking at the interlux just as a quick fix, i would love to do the awlgrip but i dont have the time it takes to do that.
dont have any new pics on the boat but i wanted to share a lil project i had worked on at work.

This is our demo consel, it has a garmin 4208 clarion dvd player. JL audio speakers, sub, and amp, vhf and a couple of nice blue led lights, i had a blast working on this, wish mine looked like that!!!
