[QUOTE="rook, post: 142620, member: 3076"] Made a little progress on the boat this long weekend. Finally got the jack plate and motor installed. [img]https://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/KTMxer313/basstracker048.jpg[/img] Then came the livewell. In the original layout of the back deck it ran bow to stern in between the drivers seat and passenger seat. With the new layout it will be port to starboard and will be used as the seat. After a little plumbing work I think its gonna work like I wanted. I also had to drill 9 rivets out during tear down so i had to get those sealed back up as well. Some small stainless bolts and 5200 done the trick.

Well the other day it hit me like a ton of bricks. I had an old beat up truck tool box in my alum scrap pile and after some modification it produced a good start to a console.
