Re: transome done and bilge
to me this is the easy part i actually enjoy duing the glass work, sounds sick but there is just something about rubbing on your boat for endless hours.....Just to get a nice complection when your done.........i really think it is some sort of addictive illness when it comes to my old boat........i could work on it all day and everyday.............

Re: transome done and bilge
yeah plenty of motivation or obsesion.Yes my wife is very understanding but once in a while she breaks down and throws a fit.......
That was just a two car garage, i wacked a whole in the front and framed it for a 10 ft garage door.....That way when i take that shrink wrap inclosure down i just have to hang a door.....

Thanks man....yeah.....it's pretty original but someone has shaved a lot of the deck pieces like the bubble, anchor hatch, cleats, horn, compass.....etc.
I actually like the look very much but I'm a sucker for an original boat.......so I'm collecting pieces to make it right someday.
You're right....cutting a hole would be hard but I thought I might have a reason some day.
So anyway.......find me a bubble......(actually....find me one in a few months when I have some money....)

BTW......what's under the deck on your boat?.......it looks like they may have painted over the wood?
If you ever remove that I'd like to see what EXACTLY the wood was or looked like......so I can find a match. I've seen pics but never a good original one.
