Wanted to share things about my boat!

[powers55]

Hello to all I'd thought i would some pictures of my boat and engine and a few other things.
I recently did some refurbishing of my boat, and built a new transom, and bought an older (much better built) engine for it. The boat trailer was primed and boat was painted (buzz can) as you can see it looks fairly good.

Please NOTE..i built the transom out of regular 3/4 inch plywood, then put 2 coats of marine resin on it, and was not very particular about it being perfect, if i get 5 to 7 years out of it I'm happy. The main point here is to get enjoyment out of this boat, and like anything with an engine it requires upkeep, and the transom is no different.

I hope you like the pictures
how about that engine!!
