[QUOTE="Pector55, post: 470053, member: 25077"] Update As the weather got cooler and daylight went away, I loaded the boat on the trailer and pulled it around in front of my garage. I've been working on her as time permits. I started by building the front top deck, that will serve as the mount for my i-drive trolling motor and electric winch/anchor. I mocked those up and pre-drilled them so I could epoxy the wood and line the holes in the process. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20191103_131906_resized.jpg"]103414._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then I built the front deck that holds the large tote for storing life vests. [ATTACH type="full" alt="bow deck.jpg"]103416._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then I build the rear deck and cut the hatches. This is a thick 20 oz carpet so I have to trim these hatches down even further prior to carpet. I'm also putting some vinyl wrap on the inside so they are still not finished. The two outer hatches have 5 gal totes inside and the center one is just open so I can put in a 3 gal gas tank. [ATTACH type="full" alt="rear storage.jpg"]103415._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then I build an all aluminum seat base for my row of bench seats. I mocked them up to see if I got the height right and whether I liked them. These will hinge forward 30" / 17" doors, for storage inside.
