Pics from today- worked on the interior, resealed the transom and hydraulic blocks, got most of the interior done. Still have to order carpet, hatch actuator(ordered but have not got it yet) and get the hatch pad covered, and get the stereo installed. Getting there slowly!!!

Scottie that looks fantastic! Keep it up. Did you change the way your engine cover opens or was it always a one piece like that. Mine is two piece that opens from the center then outwards.

502- Thanks- Hows your boat coming?
Areyouliving- I converted to a one piece hatch- I had the same style as yours(two hatches split in the middle) but I wanted to be able to use a actuator to raise it. Its a work in process, but hopefully it comes out ok- like I said nothing goes easy on this project- by the way I got a quote on upholstering the hatch, one color, $550. Seems kind of steep to me- what do you guys think?
