Stringer / deck replacement

[Sangster21]

Sprayed the hull and roof with white Endura paint. Managed to get the hardtop bolted down today with the help of my brother. It was a fiddly job with help, would have been a real dog on my own. Thanks bro! Transom assembly in, fuel tanks are going in. Feels like there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Managed to get the boat into the water just before the intended departure for our Winter Harbour trip in late August. Wow what a lot of work. Pretty happy with how the boat worked out and managed to get a few fish in the box as well. I didn't take a lot of photos, but do have a few from the trip. We did fill the fish box a few times, but I thought I should include the the "first" blood on the decks. After all the work I was happy to get the first fish in the boat.
Still need to install the radar and a few other electronic toys, make up an arch for rod holders above the hard top, door to the cuddy.... Crap I still have a bunch of work left! At least we made it out fishing a few times this summer. Hope to get out a few more times for chum in a few weeks.

Congratulations, on a job well done. That was no doubt a lot of work, but it looks good and is something that you can be proud of.
