Cheg,

Have you been ducking through doorways? You should. That boat is as sweet as they come. Great job!!!!!!!!!

Where in central MA did you launch it. Looks to be a real nice lake.

What lake? Webster? Quinsigamond?

Quaboag in Brookfield. It's a small shallow lake with a very nice ramp made usable by Irene. Thanks for the kind words. Here's a few more pics.

Wildman, I've been watching your rebuild with great interest. I'm in awe of the speed and quality of your progress. Pipedream was in my yard for about 1 1/2 months. The only reason I bought it was because it had everything I needed and all the right size including Seastar steering and some beat up Bennets. Sold it to the guy you bought it from. Looks like you replaced everything I pulled off with something better so I don't feel too guilty. Whatever happened to the big hunk of teak that my t-top was attached to?

This monster?




I sold it to Loon on here and hes going to modify it and put it on a 20ft Seacraft. The white parts were all rotten behind the plastic exterior, and I didn't need 300LB of teak on my console!
