Looks better than the old console, and the seat/storage will be very handy, i bet.
The only thing better than serenity is a two stroke at full throttle!

No real progress this week with work. Knocked up first templates for side pockets this morning. But a new toy has come today. Apart from a couple gelcoat chips in it couldn’t be happier with the size and height.

Doesn’t everyone work on their boat in chinos and a shirt?

What , , , , no tie ;-)


Here, I can fix that :-D

First cut. Hmm. That’s not good.

Second cut. Hmm that’s really not good

Lots of cuts later. Well that’s the floor gone. Time to moisture test stringers and transom

>40% moisture content in both.

Well. It’s all coming out boi

Threw my camper trailer water tank in for size comparison. That’s 80l

Is there any way you can test the actually hull itself for moisture or water ingress?
