I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I am finally getting ready to spend some time at the lake with Miss Morgan now that the flooding is over. I have been putting off finishing a few things, need to do some maintenance and also wanted to add a few things. I spent all week rounding up parts, natural after a few hours this morning I went out in search of more parts.....funny how you spend more time finding parts than working on the boat! Here is a little of what i got done today.
I never did sort out a good tie down system for the aft end of the boat.....just a couple cam straps that were always coming loose.
I decided to fork out the $$ and buy some ratcheting tie downs that mount to the trailer. This was sort of last miniute, wish I shopped these some, but so far they work great,
The battery has been bouncing around, mostly because I haven't found a hold down that didn't look like it was cheap and would fall apart. A few years ago when I built the deck hard point brackets for the fuel tank, I made two extra for the battery. So I pulled up some of the carpet and prepped the deck for new glass. I wet out 3 pieces of 2oz matt, then pushed the mounts down in them.
I took this picture when I was cutting out some 1708 to tab them in with. I'm going to let that set over night and wrap up the battery mount tomorrow.
Thats why I grabbed 2 sets ...
