waiting for the epoxy on the seat frames to dry.......tick......tick.....guess I might as well go get some steaks and put them on the grill....looks like its going to be a while before I can get the seats back in.

Arch,

What color carpet did you go with? You've done an incredible job - Nescher would be proud!

Its kind of a sliver gray, same thing that I used on the trailer.

Getting closer to splash....made some progress tonight. I'm almost ready, the hard part is going to be finding time to do it....I'm pretty busy at the office this week. I'd like to put her in in the morning, when the winds will be calmest.

Arch,

You know we love the pics. How about some shots of the completed interior?

Miss Morgan and Max are sitting (lovingly cuddled ) in style on a completely transformed trailer.

Well the interior really isn't complete.....I just have the seat in no carpet. I'm wanting to figure the gas tank thing out before I commit finishing out the interior.

Your a day early T2! I'm taking her to the office in the morning with the hope that I can sneak out for a few hours.....pesky clients get in the way....just because they pay us they expect us to prioritize them! LOL! The morning looks pretty open unless something comes up....so hopefully we will have a splash! I did the "pre-flight" check list and pics tonight. Here is a pic of the girl, and Max ready to go!

Um....I'm off work tomorrow and would be more than willing to give you a hand with your maiden voyage. Seriously.

Re: 16' Nescher ski boat complete restore

Thanks Bob VT....the inside still lacks a little....the battery is bungy corded down and there are wires coiled up and zip tied to the gunnels.....functional, but not very neat at this point. Once I do some experimenting tomorrow and measuring I should have that fixed up in no time!
