Looks great!!!!

My buddy has a roughneck with front and rear aluminum decks, side livewell, etc but the angled floor sucks....put in a flat floor!
 
Thanks guys! It will have a flat floor and I'm a huge fan of these boats!

I started the framing for the rear deck, and man does material get used quicker than I'd planned! The rear deck will have a bench seat style frame in front as well. There will be hatches to access the fuel tank, battery, and anchor. There will be storage behind the seat and under the seats!

Carpeting is just about done! The boat did not turn out to bad! Underneath the seat area are the carpeted storage compartments I had spoken of earlier!

Wow, that was a steal at $800. I guess rigs are just higher priced here on the Tennessee River. Amazing looking work. Good job.
 
I really do appreciate it! This boat was actually one of the cheapest and biggest on Craigslist I could find! I only had to drive 6 hours to get it!
