Here is one look at progress on my boat up to now. There are still lots of surprises in the works. I will be setting up a project album soon, (once I get all my stuff together) but I wanted to prove I was actually doing something.:D

This is a 13' Sport, console is out because there will be a surprise...

EXCELLENT job on the wood by Mike at Nautical Lumber. This was the original wood to the boat, except for the bow locker. He did really nice work on it.

New 3 piece all black rub rail from Sue at Twin Cities.

That wiry scramble is from the bow light, through the rub rail.
Hull sanded, compounded, polished, waxed and buffed, but you can't really see that here can you?

Ok, that's it for now. I will try to get that project album going soon.

Thanks guys, I can't wait to get her back together. All the hard stuff is over now and the fun stuff begins, except for getting the old Johnson pretty again, that will be a relative pain.

Its like I have a shiny new Mr. Potato Head again and now I get to attach the eyes, nose, mouth, moustache etc.

I'm pumped about it.

Spring..Spring..Spring..Spring..Spring..Spring..
