[QUOTE="AimLowRobin, post: 213399, member: 6218"] thought I'd check in and update. The manufacturer took a 2 week break from my boat but started back up yesterday full force. Should have some new pix coming and coming fast. Boat could be ready by next Tuesday barring any problems with the motors, etc. Some decision updates: - Going with a 12V lighting system, all LED lights. This means no generator noise. This type of lighting is pretty experimental and unproven among bowfishers, but we'll see how they work out. I will have 2 extra deep cell batts in the boat, but not a big deal for this boat, and comparable to the weight of a genny anyways, not to mention saving me the cash I planned on spending for two Honda gennies. I will be running a charge to these batteries from my kicker motor's alternator. We won't always be running the kicker motor, but will be a good portion of the time. - Lining the interior with Mostaliner (www.monstaliner.com). Tried out some samples this past weekend and very much liked the product. Easy to apply and very nice results. Pix coming soon... [/QUOTE]
