2. The storytelling was funny as hell. Loved the repeated beer pic thrown in there.
3. Thank goodness it was Lite!
4. The back rests...whoa. But hey, I’d do it if that’s what wife wanted and I got the other stuff!!! Lol
5. Well played including pic of wife. You sir know the rules.

New 42" x 30 Bilge opening getting prepped.

At least it felt good yesterday. 75 degrees, sorry northerners.

All ground down and decided to cut the transom cap to construct a built-in cooler now

When the first build was done the door would open into to the cockpit like this because at the time we were leaving the rear boxes in the corners. As the build progressed we removed the boxes and the door was completed and I never adjusted the swing. I cut out the interior gunnel and will be creating a pocket for the door so it opens 180 degrees onto it's hinge.
Now this will be be the full open position.
