    Jealous of that one! Can’t really see the back end but I’m going to guess 16 bonefisher?

    My tarpon trip is in 2 weeks and already worried about the SW wind in the forecast.

    Yep. 16 Bonefisher. My garage is ten times worse. Spartina Boatworks is doing mine. What made you decide to ditch the backrest for the tempress seat?

    Looks good!

    I still have the backrest and cushions for when there is a crowd cruising on the boat.
    I use the seat (and snap cushions for any guests without the backrest) as it keeps the back deck much more open for fishing as well as I can still access my release well/storage where with the backrest I have to remove it. The seat is also more comfortable to me.

    I’ve heard they do nice work. Have you used them before?

    Have not used them before but they are close and I've been talking with them and admiring their work for a few years now.

    You bet. It's been fun to plan.

    Well there's always something to do, I had a bad connection on my aerator and decided it was time to tame the rats nest of wiring in the console.

    Starting point:


    Just a portion of what got ripped out:


    Not done yet but I think most of the wiring is done, now to organize it a bit more and clean the console up. Then onto the bilge...

    Nice work. Want me to bring my sea pro over for you to tackle the rats nest on it?

    There’s been A LOT in between but I am on my final project for this boat.

    Fresh paint then off to market:
