[QUOTE="jkitchene, post: 376798, member: 15178"] Progress update: All new thru hull fittings New Bilge and aerator installed Minn Kota Maxxum 70 lb. Thrust installed (not wired) Seat box built and carpeted, still need to build hinged lids New consoled installed and steering hooked back up Rear deck near complete, waiting on new livewell from customlivewells.com before I can wrap it up Front deck started, waiting on a rod locker lid and 2 hatches from Dawson at Fish On Fabrications I'm hoping to get throttle cables replaced this week and side control mounted. Needing to get boat to my mechanic to check motor out as it was cutting out at higher RPM's last year. I have a new switch panel from New Wire Marine along with recirculating timer from Flow Rite that I hope to mount in the console this week. Hoping to start wiring next weekend if not before. I painted the new console but not real happy with the color, it was supposed to be darker. I'm pressed for time as I have my first tourney on March 15th so I may go back and repaint later. I still have a long way to go but making progress slowly but surely :-) Drilling into my thumb with a 5/16" drill bit slowed me down a bit this weekend :oops: [/QUOTE]
