Thats all so far.... I have all the hatches........ Next pics will be of the trailer..... 8)
 
Looks great so far! I'm doing a build myself and will be carpeting soon. When cutting the wood for your hatches, did you make the hatch cover smaller to accomodate the thickness of the carpet for when you roll the carpet over the edges? Any tips on carpeting around seat pedestals, bench seats, etc. is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Carpet each hatch indvidually than screw them down/put on hinges.... When cutting the carpet use a sharp razor/exacto knife. On the hatches when we cut them I belive we made them slightly shorter to accomodate for the carpet. Also ask around I am not a pro at this but I hope I helped!
 
Just sent SteelFlex check..... Got the non teflon.... 1gal and pigment...... The boat will be gray and blue... Interior will be blue and most of exterior will be gray. The outside will have blue as well... But I will let the pics speak for themselves. (havent gotten steelflex yet... Problay will be here Friday) :D
 
UPDATE...
I have SteelFlex,Seats,Pedastals,Submersuble Trailer Lights,Hatch pulls. I also have gotten alot more done and will post more pictures soon. :D
 
Hey nice work on your boat =D>
For sure you want to leave room around your hatches for carpet. By looking at yours, Id say at least a quarter inch all around maybe even 3/8. Make one at 3/8, carpet it and test fit. If its too big, 1/4 on another test piece.
