Sharp looker. Not sure but this looks like an after pic but there's a few differences between the outside shot above and this one.

Hi Watermann, yes I lastly added a new windshield and T-top. Hopefully get one more year out of the motor, a 150 Johnson. I rides great in big water!

Have any more pix/descriptions between step C, pulling the console, and step XYZ, floating at the dock finished?

Looks nice though

She looks good, GBF.

Too bad you didn't document the build in a thread or you could have been in the running for the Starmada Splash of the Year.

Sweeeeet!!! Lots of deck space. How is the diamond plate on the bare feet on hot days? Slippery when wet? I am setting up a 18ft CC...how about the helm flop back seat....was that stock? It all looks good, Ron

Hello gbayforever, Greetings from a fellow Ontarian. gb...Georgian Bay right? Love it there. Your pics make me wish it was summer and I am on the dock getting ready to go out in my newly finished boat. Someday perhaps. You did a great job, I love the colour. I like the style of your console too. Mine is bulky and the steering wheel sits horizontally making it awkward when you stand(too low). If you have got more interior shots I'd love to see them,.. Details,details we all love to see the little details. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks guys, the checker plate can get a little warm, once it oxidizes the glare goes down as well as being less slippery, very happy with it. I'll try and get into more detail on the weekend. Were on an island in north east Georgian bay so we're constantly bringing stuff up, the floor is bullet proof!

7 metres. The seats came with the boat, lots of storage space in them. Wish I had of known about the Splash of the Year!
