Nice refurb! You will enjoy the auto-pilot for sure. ;)

BTW: How did you config the gutter drains for the forward deck hold & for the bow flush mounts & the transom rod holders?

Also: Where do you store your Armstrong ladder?

Thanks Chuck. I am pleased with how its coming together.

The forward deck hold is plumbed to drain thru pvc pipe back to a thru hull in the transom.

I am not using the Armstrong ladder-I had a Schmidt and Sons ladder that installs under the bracket and can be deployed from the water. We will bolt that back on after painting it.

I believe that the anchor and foward bow flush mounts will drain into the bilge but I need to confirm that. If not I will have them make a drain hole thru the anchor locker to the outer hull.

I went by the shop to inquire about replacing my transom on my MA. Real nice people and great work being done there. I walked around your 23' and I must say it looks even better in person.

Really NICE!! Keep the pics coming!

Thanks for all the kind words guys, I should be getting it in the next few days and will post some final shots at that time. Charlie and all the guys at C and A marine have been awesome to work with-they really want to put out a quality product and it shows in their work and craftsmanship.

Drool.....very nice

Looks good, cant wait to see the pics of it in the water..

Final Product

More shots of the final product. I am very pleased and it is running well with the new engine doing over 45 mph WOT

You have a real head turner there! :)
