Pulled it out of the back corner of the shop & moved it to the heated garage for season prep. Once I go through everything, detail the interior and make sure it’s ready to go I’ll put the top 1/2 of the tower on and be ready to go.

Awoken from its slumber, let the minor projects begin… That is as soon as Amazon gets me some 3M 4200/5200 😂 It’s good to see it back in the driveway.

Sadly we don’t have a local marine store, it’s 2 hours away 😅 and the closest boat repair isn’t even open yet 👎

Put together my Magma grill and rod holder mount. Not 100% on how I like it, but seems it will do the job. May drape a towel over the corner of the boat just in case we get any drips.
Don’t they make a table leg attachment for that? Then you can hang it over the back. Just a suggestion.

Pretty ingenious mounting spot. I would be worried that something is going to flip over on my seat cushion, like a rolling sizzeling Bratwurst :) Hard to see in picture if it is angled out over the water? I have been in some chop using mine and could stand on the platform and brace myself, when some ass hat on a jet ski comes roaring by. Is your easy to reach?

Long overdue, finally installed the bow cover. Took a few hours, it turned out very well, nice and taut.
Cockpit will be next when I have some time.

After reviewing the mirror posts I opted to go with a cheapo (less than $20) to see how holds up. It’s a little narrow view, but it works.

Also become an expert in trolling motor fishing line removal - my buddy wasn’t paying attention.
