It has been awhile since I had posted any pictures and progress.
Let me tell you it always takes longer than you think.
The first thing made in this post was the below deck ice chest. I made this from 1" urethane sheet foam. Both sides were laminated with 1708 and epoxy. The parts where than cut from measurements and assembled.
This is my first real OH S**t. When I did all the measuring the floor stringers where not attached. So when I went to install the box it would not fit under the stringer due to the fact I could not rotate it. Never fear, just cut one side off and then assemble inside the stringer system. What a royal PIA.
Trial fit before laminating parts.

Box done with sides cut off re-fit.
Final fit.
Don't ask why I put the decal in
The next box to make was the live fish well box. I went below the floor to keep the original feel of the boat. Plus I am not a hard core fisherman, and only need to keep pin fish and shrimp alive.
This time I made sure the box could slide under completely made.

Trial fit of cut parts.
Making of the round corners.

Final Fit. Over flow on left, water center and light on right.
No Step looks good in pairs.
I am just finishing up on some molds and side panels. I will post those another week when I have all the pictures in one place.
That's it from the island.
