Done

Well I know I haven't been posting any progress and thats because I haven't had time. I have been working hard on the boat to finish, I have also been working full time. Besides all the real work I have been able to finish the boat. Yeah you heard it right the 23' Fish Nautique Restoration is complete. It has been a year and a week since my fist post and a long road. These postings will continue until the boat is 100% perfect. I plan on splashing her this week, I will make a video of the first run. I will be taking finish pictures this week also and will post them when I have them. For now enjoy the few pics I have been taking...

Well the assemably is going good.....

I have been working on all the finishing touches for the boat. The Center console is in and bolted down. I screwed in all the boomer hatches and fuel fills. I also started the wiring panel that will install in the center console. Today I am going to install the bump rail and all the stainless grab rails. Here are a few pics....
