Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“

John, if your boat looks this good NOW, I can't begin to imagine how it will look with chrome fittings, a new interior, engine(s?), etc.

Don't sell your efforts short, you have a LOT to be proud of!!! :D

She looks magnificent, John! PLEASE take it easy finishing up on this project, you've been pushing yourself awfully hard (understandable, of course) lately. This weekend isn't going to be much fun if you're in the hospital, or worse! (Sorry for nagging, just worried about your health bud.)

thank you silver ghost im hoping to have some of the interior in today,along with some chrome,i dont have the white rubrail yet. and the reason the whole transome is white is because im going to paint the 63 ,75 hp evinrude teal with white accents ,i hope it looks good on the boat.i will take more pics when its almost done before we go to silver lake.

thank you mark,i agree ive been puting alot of hard time trying to finish it before silver lake.but it aint bad for a guy that had 3 heart attacks and a blood clot in it,my left side of my heart was damaged,and i also have copd/emphysema,along with bad knees and back.
so i thank you for your concern mark,my wife has been worried too.

im glad we went with the metalic aqua teal,it sparkles in the sun.
