Trayder's Boat
 

Have I missed the restore pics or is Trayder holding out?
I read the stories of the boat being used, but us Florida guys have not seen the beast yet.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

And what a beast it is. The last time I saw it, the Suzi was just put on and Jason had maybe 10-15% left to complete. Considering he's been using her since August must mean she's very close to 100%. Hopefully Jason can post some pics soon (hint hint, wink wink).

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

I will take pics soon, I have a pile of them but have yet to resize them.

One thing I can tell you is she may have the SeaCraft hull the similarites seem to of ended there. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I will put some up in the next few weeks.

Thanks for your interest [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Hurry up, I've been checking almost daily!

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

YEAH! Hurry up!

Last pictures we saw you were just putting in the floor...

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

I agree with Scott.....Jason's boat looks sweet and that Suzuki prrrr's like a kitten. Let's just say that a ton of work was done to it, and very well thought out...I might add.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Pictures, please. I need motivation to finish up mine...

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

I need some fresh boat porn. Let's see that baby!!

Trayder,

I can't recall if you said you managed to get that beautiful Pompanette fighting chair to fit in the stern area or not??

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

I working on it guys, It will be 2 weeks at least as I am awaiting the return of my FURUNO Chartplotter unit from FURUNO, The pictures would not look too sexy with a gaping hole in the console [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Mark- The Pompanette Chair fit like a glove! It was the Bauch towers Marlin Tower that gave me the headache!!!!

Did I mention the harpoon pulpit?

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Ok Jason, where is the shot of you sitting along the rail of that new boat hanging onto a fish (go to local fish market if need be [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] )??

Only kidding, nice work and long in coming. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] I hope mine come out half as nice. And at the pace I'm going it'll be two years.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Jason, She looks really great....when are you going to use her??!! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
Where did you get the console...It looks like a perfect size and might be great in my 23' project cuz I'm going to be looking for one.

The next set of pics need to show a little use or fish stains so we all know that it is not sitting in a showroom!!!

If one is good then two is better!

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

TX guys-

I am very happy with the outcome and I thank you for all of your compliments.

I will get some more detailed pictures along with some descriptions of what worked, ie: Bow livewell, console, and what was a bomb, ie: the stern live well.

generaider- the console came from Marine Connection Liquidators in Ft. Pierce FL.

Thanks Again

Simple and sweet.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

The boat looks great!

Nice job

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Beautiful work!! She looks sharp with her color combinations of black and gray. If I was a fish I'd be shaking at the knees. Cant wait to see more pics.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Fantastic job. Brings back memories as my first SeaCraft was a 1973 20CC. Can't wait to see the rest of the boat.

Good Luck,
Chris

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Excellent job Trayder. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] What is the job time from start to finish? Very clean looking!! Are the hull chines the same as newer 20's?

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Jason - just beautiful, now whatcha gonna do all winter?

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

HA TRAYDER
Glad to see you finally got her done. Now comes the fun part using her, looking back I enjoyed doing my project but not nearly as much as fishing her every weekend. I know it’s getting cold up there but that only means you might need to make a few long trailer trip this winter.

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Jason,

I see you finally settled on a seating solution. I think it's a great idea. Is it removable?

Re: Trayder's Boat
 

Otto-

Yes there are I copied the idea from Tim Duggan there is a plate in the deck and the post pops in and then the stool seat fits in the post all together it is 3 pieces.
