    Only things i have done is install a 4 way usb port under the help to connect the ipads and phones.
    Also installed a deck plate in the engine hatch to give easy access to the battery switch.

    Cut the vinyl today for the new floor, i cut the step and floor in one cut so the lines will match up when installed.


    No im having a coffee before i test fit it and glue it down.

    floor is in!

    Still have to do some edge trim pieces around the top step, the lines on the step will line up with the rest of the floor once its screwed back in its correct place.

    I learned a hard lesson on Saturday, never leave steps unsecured in the boat, I was completing my floor and the top step was not screwed down, and as i stepped down into the cabin the step rolled over and for a short time I was airborne, i landed in the door edge with my spine!
    So after a trip to the ER and an MRI it turned out that nothing was broken but my pride, im in a lot of pain with lots of soft tissue damage.
    So no work on the boat for a few more days.

    uggghhh, at least all you need is a little time and it was nothing worse.  Definitely get some good rest so you can enjoy the weather with that boat when the time comes!  Take a little time and enjoy what you've accomplished so far!

    Thanks guys it was a hard enough hit to bend the aluminum trim at the base of the door! I could not draw any breath for about 30 seconds like I was paralyzed, I was pretty scared at that point.
    But I'm doing much better today thanks for the well wishes, im hoping to get back at it by the weekend because next weekend im going to take her out for a test run.

    It's great to see an older boat get such quality custom TLC. And here's to a swift recovery from the fall!
