    Well, in this week I'll be starting the registration process, trailer titled the outboard test and by the end of the month I'll have its first official test on the water for a full 6-8 hrs if all goes well. I do have plans to add a bench seat, top, and extra rod holders but those I can wait on...

    No, I'm saying I've done the flooring in a bit more unorthodox method with setting the cap on the hull and stringers so it sits flush, then I cut a new piece of flooring, set it, took it back out, made adjustments and then set it in, screwed it in where I made my pilot holes, then screwed it in...

    The floor is connected to the cap, and the stringers so it's all one piece and the rivets are in on the outside, the only place it's not connected is by the console because it looks like it was previously cut out, plus I needed it open to run my wires

    I mean I pretty much did it that way, I just didn't add that final layer of fiberglass connecting everything because I couldn't find any detailed pictures or information on how the floor originally looked, so I was basically guessing while following the basic rules my grandfather told me.

    I used the laminating resin as a base layer, laid the fiberglass then a sealing layer and put in the floor. After that I poured in a final layer of polyester resin after I set in the floor to seal everything up except my drain hole in the back

    I also switched from finishing the steering to getting a new ignition switch so I can close up the throttle

    I've double checked everything and made sure that whatever I did would be stable and or sealed from damage. But if I need to replace the floor in a few years I have no qualms with that because I could do it a bit tighter next time with the cap still on it but it's solid as a foam rock now

    I'm having difficulty posting any more pics, but I resined the flooring in place before placing the carpet down and finished with the wiring. Everything on the outside is sealed up and I'm starting on the final transom work for my own piece of mind. This Sunday is the floatation test so I'm...

    Starting on Wiring, Rivets and steering so I'm moving along much more quickly than anticipated or expected. I believe she'll be water test ready by September then first voyage next spring with the final cosmetics and fun things added.

    I don't think there's a jackplate for it, but it has a long L-angled piece that fits over the Transom and cap, my problem now is just getting it to sit correctly so I can drill and put in the new rivets

    I've found out that I've made a mistake. I couldn't set the cap on the flooring but instead have to recut the floor and set it on top of the pre existing outline and then screw it in. But I'm working on it and getting it done the right way

    I know the four smaller holes are the mounts, the two at the bottom, one is for the Live-well and the other for the drain plug. Just not sure about the one in the middle

    Does anyone know how to hook up an outboard through the Transom, like what holes are for what, where I can put my bilge pump outlet, stuff like that

    The previous guy, or someone cut into it and I don't have any good pictures to rebuild it while it's off, so I'm just going to seal up that part and reinforce it. It's past the spillwell, where the cap connects to the Transom, covered by a metal strip for the motor

    Finally got to work for outlining my next steps of fiberglass and making it more personable for myself. I might add extra fiberglass to the stringers when I remove the cap tomorrow but I definitely plan to just fuse the cap and transom into being one piece so getting all the immediate things...
