more cab-o-sil and resin. Prob why I went through 8 gallons!

Yeah I found out also that you can burn through a lot of epoxy doing it like that. Oh well guess it wont fall apart though.

Eh, trailer is almost done. Tell ya what, duplicolor bedliner aerosol is the shizzzzznit. Not sure how it will hold up, but looks damn good! Pretty torn about letting the project go or seeing it to fruition. I know I'll kick myself after all the "hard" work is done.

 

[paulsboats]

yes you will.

 

[BADBK]

Boat is back on the trailer, ready for someone to finish what I started... looks like a yard sale inside.

How did the trailer turn out? Got pictures? Someone needs to buy this boat!!!!!! Josh has done the hard/dirty work for ya.

 

[Ramifications]

If you were only a little closer, we would be making a deal. You have done a great job, and I would love to finish this boat and make it my own

Honest take, I didn't finish the whole thing. I grinded down most of it, rust-o-leum'd the parts I did, sprayed duplicolor bedliner of half of it. The parts that are full-up done look very good. A couple more days work and it would look real good if finished up.

If it sells, it sells. Gonna find it a hiding place until snow flies and maybe I'll re-attempt finishing it. Can't take less than $1500 though, I'll keep it for that.

It's very nice to have my 21BR in the garage though!

we are only 690 miles from each other would love another winter project but the gal would kill me plus tried to sell mine with motor for $6000 and not so much as one offer ever came back, honastly I cant believe it all that work and anyone who sees it anywhere says that a real good looking Check, oh well such is life, $1500 is a damn good price for all that work you did someone has got to jump at your great deal, any one that tells me they like mine at the lakes, I will tell them about yours for sale. oh since I am keeping her I am looking to upgrade to a 250 is there places anywhere that finance used motors that you know of?

I'm thinking about it myself, however I want to convert the long deck into a bow rider. I like cutting!!!

evening all. im picking up this boat from badbk and am looking for power plant options. i did want to go with a 225hp or 300hp outboard seeing as thats what badbk was going to throw onto it but i dont have that much for funding so was wondering if anyone might have or know someone with one of those outboards that needs abit of work to get running again or might be able to throw an idea or two at me for an I/O setup. something that will hook up to a 289/302 ford motor. im abit new to the boating resto thing so any help will be awesome. thanks guys.

also bad... you got alot of great work into the boat awesome dude. cant wait to see you out on the lake with yours when im done.
