Thermometer in the truck was reading 113 on the black top this weekend, and I was out working on the SeaCraft, can't just let her be 95% finished and just sit. Consumed around 5 gallons of unsweet tea and pee'd once.
Got a lot done this weekend, or at least I'm telling myself that. Going around Sunday afternoon and taking pictures of what had been completed it seems like I barely did anything, but between the breaks for the heat and running up to the hardware store 15 times per day a good deal of work gone done, and a major milestone (at least for me) got done, the rub rail.
To everyone on here who installs a rub rail by themselves, you are my hero, especially a rigid vinyl one. It was like wrestling with a 300lb man after it being coiled up for 4 months. Let it sit in the sun all day, was almost too hot to pick up, but still it kicked our asses and refused to go the way it needed to go. Got it done though, and man does it tie the boat together. Couple of install and finish pics.
All the screws that went anywhere near the transom got a good dip in 5200 before going in.
Pull-up cleats
Bow hardware mounted
Antennas mounted on hardtop

Teak crab chairs in the backyard watching the progress
That's all I got for now, gonna find time this week to do non-skid on the deck/gunwhales, then I'll feel like I'm close.
