Re: Project Twin
Productive weekend. Finished up almost all of the small nic-nac type stuff here & there. Finished my front seat group. Cleaned up the wiring under the helm and ran my main steering lines. Ordered the rest (I hope
) of the parts I need to finish her up with the exception of some new hoses for aft of the power pump (I'll need to mount it and decide on routing - might just have them made locally). Now all I need is more time to work on her!

Re: Project Twin
I saw that Craig, way to go
I've actually been out a few times, on other toons, including a trip to our favorite lakeside watering hole. Really got me geared up to get this thing wet! If I could just get past a few more hurdles you would THINK I'd be good to go! Seems like every task I start on has to be about 5x more difficult then it should be
I'm STILL trying to get all the parts in hand to finish the steering, and now I have a few things I need to trouble shoot with the motors. I did get it out and run them last weekend, so that's a plus. I finally tracked down all the prop hardware I needed, and I had my father in law pick up my underskin pieces from the machine shop. They turned out really nice, here's a test fit:

Re: Project Twin
Ugh. More set backs. Lost all of Saturday due to prior commitments. Got my lowers all serviced, got my new prop hard ware , installed the pops annnnnd....they're both spun
Filler kit never showed up for the Sea Star. Ebay seller who advertises same day shipping waited 3 days to send it. Fabbed up our own fill kit, but I'm having a heck of a time getting the air out and getting both motors to sync up. Didn't even get to the under skin

Re: Project Twin
Props boxed and going out today. Check
Power steering system all bled out. Check
Appt for custom mooring cover made. Check
Title and registration back from BMV. Check
Massively deprived of sleep. Check
Still haven't gotten to the under skin, but since I can't launch this weekend (due to not having props) I plan on finishing that and any other minor things I may have over looked. Going to set aside some time to get out on that water too...just not on this boat

Looks awesome Ty. The underskin you installed looks factory. That's one thing I've been wondering how to do on my boat
