I took a mini vacation to work on the boat this week. Also I've been doing most of the work at night after work so it seems like I've been trucking right along however to me it seems to be moving slow. I hope to get the thing complete by Spring but not sure if I'll make it. I've decided to put a conventional bracket with a large flotation chamber on the stern. I'll keep the natural arch of the transom. There are other things I have planned and I'll keep posting pics as I go.

Fellow-ship thanks for the nice comments. You could always get another project boat so you wont feel left out [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

ED- I may have to go down south to get the pipe work done. There is a guy that runs a place called Fishing boats Unlimited near San Diego and does custom work. Turns out he used to work for Potter when he was a kid in Florida.

abll111- I post the pic's on my web site.. not sure how it all works but you have to have a web site and then buy this software ($30.00) that allows you to up load the pics.

Trayder- thanks. I plan on filling and fairing the bottom after I bond the electronics box to it. I'll post a pic of it when it's finished.
