Last night was a long night. I started on the boat around 8:30pm and finished up around 3:15am. I got the lights, bilge pumps, blower motors, dash lights, trolling motor and foot switch all wired up.
I also got the door latches installed on the bow doors along with the brace underneath the bow seat. This thing is really coming together and I can smell the spray as I type this up.
I did discover my wiring on the driver side is installed in a pvc pipe which is going to prevent me from installing the t-top style frame I wanted to build. I am not giving up on the idea, just putting it off until a later date. I found a simple bimini top on Amazon for $104.00 I ordered to provide the shade I need while on the water.
If anyone is looking for one it is Best Choice SKY 1161 6' top. The bimini top comes with rear frame supports, storage bag for the canvas and all hardware. I don't expect it to be top tier but as long as it last for this season it will be worth the $100.00.
First the in the morning, I will get the boat tagged and a few other things finished up and then its LAKE BOUND!!!! I will give an update from the water and possibly include photos (video if the site would allow it).
I might just have to create a youtube page and provide links so I can show off the boat a little better. Photos never do anything justice.
