Re: pacific assassin build

ook her down to fill here up with fuel, only a 190 gallons instead of the 200 that I was hoping for lol. That will work, took quite a few times when the pump would only allow $100 at a time. Brought her back home and gave her a quick bath.

Re: pacific assassin build

with the taller side rails the 3.25" tall back rail looks funny and I would like a little more height there anyway so it is going to get cut out. I also am going to add a rail to the transom door also
