Sylvan offshore that wants to be a Starcraft

[Ejipner]

Well winter is here. I didn't get nearly enough done. My splash goal is this summer. Hopefully early summer. My ankle injury back in September really messed up my fall. Still in physical therapy, it doesn't hurt all the time but my range of motion isn't the same. Tried snowboarding and I don't have enough flex still. This ankle really let me know that I'm getting old and fat lol. I'm only 31 but the 21 version of me would have walked off an ankle injury.

On another ther note check out this video.

im using a lot of ideas from this boat. I like how far forward the controls are. It makes everything feel bigger. I cut the roof off my cudy up to the small windshield. I have a lot of plans and almost all the parts.

Can't wait for spring so I can get back at it. Vermont winters without a shop I can fit the boat into really suck.

Cool rig! Ankle injuries aren't to be taken lightly! The more severe the injury, the more time they take to heal....especially to gain some range of motion back. It's good to have a splash date but this passion we have for our boat restos should never be rushed imo. Spring is just around the bend.

Well it has been a productive summer.. Not don't yet but getting there. I have the inside painted and engine installed. Kicker motor mounted but I need to get longer control cables Need to finish electrical and instal Bimini/ radar arch. Almost there!!! Splash is going to be this fall. I will get pics soon.
