[QUOTE="Rat, post: 123777, member: 1914"] I am embarrassed to say that not much has been done since my last posting. I have really been waiting on a break in this freakish weather we are having to prime and paint the decks, sole and sides, but it looks like it is going to be awhile before I can do that. In the mean time the Xtreme Hunt is getting close so I have decided to take her to the water sans primer and paint! I have the trolling motor (40 lb bow mount) and parts on the way for the gas motor, rear seat is mounted, batteries are positioned wiring is going in and lights are being installed. basically she will be a naked fisher/hunter her first time out! I will get images up this week of the progress. Not being able to get her painted yet has been a bummer, but I am just going to have to wait, that's all. If I can fix the motor, which remains to be seen, I will have her on the water in two weeks, gettin' her muddy at Granger Lake! She is glued together tho and all the structural works is done and walking around on her is very solid; no sags, creeks or pops. I think she will fish. Pictures, I promise! [/QUOTE]
