Following. This boat has soooo much potential!

Extend the deck. Remove the center section completely, you will have plenty of storage under the front deck and rear deck. Plus build rod lockers down both sides of the boat. IF the floors will be under the front deck/rear deck, do them first. If not, it doesn't matter. Although the floor could...

Nice update. Hopefully that 1/2" works out.

Looks great!

I have two group 31 Duracell Deep Cycle batteries I use for my trolling motor. Love them. Thinking I need to replace my starting battery this year and will replace it with the Duracell.

Well, I decided to make a few more mods. This time I am adding t-slot channel around the gun-wale. This turned into an event. I want the ability to more rod holders, drink holders, tool holders around the boat as needed. Didn't like the idea of drilling a bunch of holes to add brackets and...

=D> Looks good.

Nice work on both, the chairs and boat.

I guess I have a different experience with e-fuels. I fill my tank up in the fall, add oil and Stabill, let it sit all winter (November to March) and run that tank of gas all summer. Fill up again for the winter and repeat. Only time I burn more than one tank of gas a year is when I make trips...

You welcome!

Couple of comments. I have used POR15 on a gas tank. We bought a used S10 Blazer for my son and the gas tank had rust holes about half way up the tank. We dropped the tank, cleaned it up best we could, then followed the directions on the POR15 stuff. Worked like a charm and took care of the rust...

Doens't take long to drill them out. Just drill out the ones in the hull. lol

just about anything abrasive will strip them. Some require more elbow grease than others. If the glue is solid, you "could" glue to it, however your carpet will show every detail (wrinkle, line, etc.) that is under the carpet. Best to strip it down.

I had my group 31 under the bow deck and moved it to the stern. The added weight on the bow made the boat bow heavy, even on plane. Now I have 2 group 31's at the stern and she still site level. As for the charger, you can splice in longer wires. I did, I left the charger under the bow and...

Some cities and states do have requirements for fuel addatives that providers must meet. This link will get your started. https://www.epa.gov/gasoline-standards/state-gasoline-standards

Good luck staying on budget. :mrgreen: Looking forward to watching the progress.

Yes, I used the Menards carpet on both my boat projects. First one I used contact cement, the last one (16' Sylvan Deep V) I used the carpet adhesive Menards sells. This is the version I use...

Looks good so far. Might want to reconsider a white interior. On bright sunny days it will reflect back in your eyes making it difficult to see into the water. Tan carpet is nice, however it shows everything.

Um, ethanol is not mandated, except in 7 states. https://www.hemmings.com/blog/2015/07/16/which-states-require-ethanol-in-your-fuel-fewer-than-you-might-think/ https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1099149_state-laws-on-ethanol-in-gasoline-only-seven-states-require-e10-blend If you don't live...

I've got a stretcher I have been dying to try out. :mrgreen: There are some nice builds for sure. I keep my build updated to changes I have made since the initial build. There are a couple of things I would have done a little different. 1) made the command center below the side rail so I...
