    Default Boat is Slowly Coming Along.


    Went over to do my weekly check on my boat build. Only took the one pic but it is on my trailer, my rod trays are built, and my step down has been built. Should have taken a pic of it. Will make it easy to get up and down from the deck and it has a lot of storage. Boat will be painted next week. But found out today the boat may be ready but may not be able to get a trolling motor until late October. Or I should say the trolling motor I want. I really enjoy going over to Mighty White Marine just to check out boats they are completing. They put out a whole lot of fantastic looking rigs. Find it amazing the level of customization they do. Been fighting a gum abscess for 3 months. It’s been rough but I think they got it taken care of yesterday. I’m ready to chase some fall shell cracker.

    I’d enjoy the build on my boat if I was having one done. Very cool.

    October, hopefully this heat will be out of here by then and you can enjoy using it !
    Hope they got your gums straightened out for you .
    I had that problem a couple years ago . Mine was an impacted wisdom tooth that got abscessed , once they got the tooth out the gum healed up .
    Warm Salt water rinses help .

    I worked all winter a couple years ago redoing a old mod V boat I bought. I took everything out of it, including the front deck, transom, and float pods, took it down to the ribs. Got it all back together and added storage along one side and the width of the boat for storage/step coming from the front deck. Was itching to get fishing when spring came around and didn't have the step storage covered. Didn't think it would be a big deal. One trip and finishing that step storage moved straight to the top of the get it done list.

    Looking forward to seeing the finished project.
