    Project Fuggly - No Longer Fuggly And Splashed!!!!!!

    quick update, I glued in the carpet in the side pockets....then cut out the filberglass angles that I use to mount the seats. I located and glued one angle to the deck for each of the front seats (back seat angles are already installed.) Once those are dry tomorrow, I will screw the seats in...

    I painted in front of the toe board, under the upper deck tonight. I may still put some carpet up there later, more like a veco in with a hemmed edge. I used bilge coat. My sign friend showed up today with custom decals! Some for the steering wheel and some for the stern drive. I really...

    Thanks Chuck! Work got in the way this week but I did get the seat bottoms varnished and the toe boards complete other than carpet. I then carefully closed the hinge and put double sided tape on the top of it. I then carefully sat the seat bottom in place where I wanted it and stuck it to...

    Thanks for the complements! But lets make sure it doesn't sink first lol. I did get a lot of stuff crossed off the list. The main pre-splash items are the finishing the front seats and installing the carpet (want to do that before installing the front seat brackets) I located, installed the...

    Thanks Kcassells. I didn't get a lot done today, still a bit weak. However I did get all of the battery hold down pieces ready to install. If you go back about a million post, I installed the battery hold downs that I made out of seacast. They have stainless carriage bolts sticking up. The...

    Thanks Wood I will check with them. Probably a this winter project, but I want to look into it before I install the pito pick up and tube. I sort of got the front deck drains installed tonight. I had a friend help hold the fittings on the outside, while I tightened up the jamb nut on the deck...

    Project Fuggly - No Longer Fuggly And Splashed!!!!!!

    Tonight I drilled, installed and wired the socket for the stern light. I also put the hardware on the bow light and tightened it down. I still need to hook that up, but I want to get the bow deck braces (under the dash) installed before I flop around in there trying to do that. The back side...

    I put in the thru hull fitting for the bilge, installed and clamped the hose in place. I got the fitting jamb nut threaded almost all the way on, then hit a bur in the threads.....then it took two vice grips to get it off! Round two went quite a bit smoother, but it took 3 times as long as it...

    Almost got the fuel tank in today. I started out by installing the line from the fuel pump to the carb. Next I drilled and installed the vent in the upper transom. At this point i realized that the vent hose needed to go thru the old vertical section of the rear deck that I left in place. At...

    Project Fuggly - No Longer Fuggly And Splashed!!!!!!

    I worked on the wiring and fuel system today. Oddly I spent a lot of time moving around wires, figuring out how to route the fuel sending wires, and hoses. I also took the fuel pump out after I sorted out the fuel line routing and put in the fitting for the (hopefully) final time. I spent a...
