[QUOTE="HahnZooKeeper, post: 240649, member: 6693"] It's been unseasonably warm here in N.E. Indiana and I heard there was a football game on today, but I'd rather work on the boat. Besides my Packers aren't playing (I watched for the commercials). A few good ones (Sketchers one with the dog racing). Anyway, I got my marine grade plywood yesterday, and I was itching to get started on that portion of the big build. Called my fellow "Cheesehead" and he was more than happy to give me a hand. So we got the front section of the floor cut and fit in. Not quite as easy as I though! I'm the kind of guy who likes to measure (at least) twice before cutting once. Especially when it's my hard earned money on the "chopping block"!!! But any day working with friends is a good day by my standards. THANKS Cheesehead!!! Take a look at my pics and let me know what you think. Remember, I have a frame of 2x2's that will support this floor when done. I also picked up my transom "protector" plate a few days ago from the great folks at Metal Supermarkets. They did a fantastic job cutting and bending me a piece of stainless that will wrap around my transom when I get it completed. It's gonna keep that massive 9.8hp Mercury from digging in to the transom and the outside shell of the boat at the stern. Oh yeah, where would I be without the help of my 8yr old Caleb. He is my shadow when it comes to getting things done around here. I love it!!! [/QUOTE]
