    1448 fishing/duck boat project

    Just got finsished putting the carpet down. Wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

    1448 fishing/duck boat project

    I've got some progress done on my boat, but not where I wanted to be by May. I spent a month in Cleveland for work and have been doing 6-10 hours days, so coming home to work on a boat hasn't been that easy. But I'm at the point I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Here is the frame...

    Your boat is coming along great. I've been out of time for a month and haven't been on, I'm really impressed on your progress.

    It's coming along nice. I'm stuck in Cleveland for work for another three weeks, so I can't do a thing to my boat. :(

    1448 fishing/duck boat project

    It's on Pursuit, channel 608 on direct tv. Not sure if it's on any other channels. I got into it because a friend is a sponser. Cool show, it's not the typical hunting show. The fact that they were hunting goldeneye on the snake says that. Funny you say that about the boat ramp, on that show the...

    As I'm enjoying watching yours too. What kind of water are you going to run yours on? I watched that D3, ducks, dogs and decoy, show the other night and they were hunting in Idaho on the snake river. It was sick how many goldeneye they shot.

    It's going to get camo. I bought enamal instead of primer, opps. So I'm thinking I'll leave it like it is all summer, then before duck season I'll put a camo finish on it.

    1448 fishing/duck boat project

    Just realized tonight that the quart can of primer wasn't the same as the gallon can that I bought. Ends up I got enamel. I was wondering why it came out so shiny. Oh well, I'll enjoy it till next duck season comes around.

    Just got a coat of primer down. It's amazing what a coat of paint will do. I have the torpedo heater running in the garage roght now to keep the garage warm, so I hope it dires enought by tonight so I can get it back on the trailer.

    That kind of where I'm at too. Planning on an open design and I'm still on the fence about the gun locker on the side. I'd sure would be nice to have it, but I'd hate to give up and space on the floor. Keep up the good work.

    1448 fishing/duck boat project

    Well I was planning on getting my boat painted yesterday. I was just planning on going right over the existing paint. I figured it the existing paint stayed on for 30+ years, I'm sure it will stay on a few more years. The only problem, didn't think the bottom would be a dirty as it was. ](*,)...

    Boat on Trailer

    I'm sure I'll figure something out. I have a little while to go before I hava an outboard on it. The kick in the pants is I have an huge RV parking spot in my yard that I rent to my neighbor so he can park his ski boat there. I'll let him enjoy it while he can, next year I'm planning on a 2...

    Boat on Trailer

    Is there any other kind of alternative? I'd hate to have to take everything out of my garage so I can get my boat in and I really don't what to leave it outside.
