[QUOTE="Rick James, post: 189910, member: 3092"] So I got another massive chunk of work done this weekend. I'm literally almost done except for cutting out, carpeting, and mounting the floor area in the front, as well as bolting some small accessories on like cleats on all corners and the RAM mounts to secure my Rino 530hcx that I keep all my waypoints on. I should be done with all that this upcoming weekend. I still plan to degrease and paint the motor, just haven't had the warm weather we need for paint to dry well. Anyhow, last weekend I cut the top off the middle bench, gutted it, then built a frame for my battery boxes and the two bank charger along with the plug port. This weekend I focused on wiring the whole boat. I installed both my anchor and bow light receptacles, a bilge pump in the back, and both of my new sonar units were installed/wired, and had the transducers mounted. I also fabricated the front floor support frame out of aluminum. I was amazed at how easy it was to work with the aluminum, I bought a $20 cut off wheel from Harbor freight and just fabricated each piece by measuring, cutting, and notching carefully. I should finish the boat next weekend, but for now I've included a handful of pics from my cell phone.
