[Mrtoler]

Thanks guys!

WOW, you are amazing. I am worn out just looking at all the pictures. GREAT JOB! I can't wait to see pictures of it on the water full of smiling faces!

[Mrtoler]

Haha, thanks BPH. It won't be to much longer till we hit the water! I got a good start on the wiring and still gotta get all my gauges. That being said, I gotta get my throttle/steering cables at my local shop and install them then I will be able to start the motor

[Mrtoler]

Got alot of odds and ends finished today. Installed the new battery cables, installed all new fuel lines, we finally got the controls mounted the original shift cables where long enough so I was able to salvage them. We built the armrest/ control holder built....I got some pics









This is where the throttle cables come through the floor and through the armrest, the sink stand will be next to this and will cover the holes and places with no vinyl/carpet

Well Mrtoler, I just your this rebuild thread for the first time this morning, and am blown away with what you have accomplished. Incredible job by an incredible craftsperson . Not sure what your trade is, but you are multi-talented to say the least. As for all the seats/upholstery work, was this all done by you by chance?

So, when does she hit the water?

Congrats again on a super lookin' restore.

Thanks Old Dog, Ive had alot of help from my dad and I think he can do just about anything and do it well...as far as my trade, we own a water well drilling company and we also install aerobic septic systems! The seats where bought new from pontoon stuff, I could have recovered my old ones but I wanted new PLASTIC seat bases and the old ones was wood.
I'm hopping to hit the water this weekend but I'm still not sure if it will happen.

Built the sink/galley area today...it went pretty good, now you won't see ant cables or wiring from the controls except about 3" worth where they come out of the armrest and attach to the throttle! I still need a counter top I'm going to use a material called starboard that will work good...



Here is where the control cables come through the floor



This is where they leave the sink stand and go through the armrest we built yesterday





This is the deck plate I installed



When opened I will use it to route the BBQ propain hose from the grill to the bottle, that way I won't have to open the front door to hook up the hose!

Fucking Brilliant sir!

[Mrtoler]

I've got a lil bit more done to the boat, I salvaged a few doors from my old layout and used them on my sink/galley aera. I ordered my flush dash mount kit for my gps and installed it today, my new gas cap from backtoboating.com also showed up and hopefully it will get installed tomorrow!!!



Also mounted the steering box and wheel



Here's the template they sent me



I traced it on the console with a pen



No turning back now







Here's my new SS gas cap

Awesome job man, it looks terrific!

[Mrtoler]

Thanks Sir, I appreciate the kind words! If I can ever get down to my local boat shop to get a new steering cable I would be able to get on the water. There's just not enough time in the day!

[Mrtoler]

I got a bunch of pics of the maiden voyage but here is a few of the highlight photos

[Mrtoler]

There is still a ton of small things to do but it good enough to get a lil fishing time in!

I bet you felt on top of the world!
