Hydroturf from gator trax. https://www.gatortraxboats.com/p-160-hydroturf.aspx

I have already bloodied the decks...

Got the paint from lock stock and barrel. Nice people and really happy with the paint https://www.lockstockbarrell.com/

They came with the boat, I did replace the helm . I bought it at local store

Lol that's a good idea

I actually already did that :lol: guess it was after the pictures though

Pretty much finished , just a few little odds and ends to complete. but I think all in all it came out nice

Got quite a bit done this weekend, 250 rivets later I have decks and console in...sanded primed and painted , fuel tank , engine and steering installed. Hydro turf should be here Wednesday.

Well I have the boat completely stripped down and all areas of corrosion have been ground out acid etched alodined and primed luckily nothing was 2 deep. A few welds for the floor supports were broken so I ground out and re-welded them, I also welded additional bracing under the front and rear...

There was sand under the trolling motor mount. I have been getting sand out of it for 2 weeks. No way anyone could do this on purpose. Good thing is it's all out got a few spots of corrosion but can be sanded out with scothbrite.

It is a cabelas custom hatch. Yeah was nice of her. I was hesitant to buy it in case there were under deck issues. I discussed it with her prior to purchase and she told me they washed boat down after every trip. Guess she did not know what her husband did. Rained out tonight :(

Finally got all the foam out of the back and the hatches fitted. Going to start on the bow tomorrow nite. Hope to be ready to clean grind sand and treat the pitted spots by the weekend. I think most should come out with scotcbrite except for a few places.

just did the measuring .. Going to look for and order the hatches then cut to fit hopefully find some with storage built in . I Have enough work to keep me busy until they come in. My wife is out of work right now so she has been doing most of the labor.. She has already broke a few...

Previous owner called and she was willing to take the boat back , said her ex husband got it beached while they were separated and she wasn't aware of it. I told her I already had it stripped it down to a bunch of pieces so would not be easy to bring back. So she is sending me 500 to make things...
