I cannot believe how fast it has come together. It looks real good. How many welders are working on it at a time? I hope this weather up here holds for the season. It sure is shaping up to be a great one.

Thanks Pete. Yeah I hear you on the weather, I'm so jealous of you guys this weekend. Glad to hear it wasn't your pots that got picked by that jerk! I'm not sure how many people are working on the boat, but I think a few. What I do know is these guys are a pleasure to work with. No matter how many times I call to ask questions or ask for pics ( thanks Joe) they answer the phone or call me back right away. It's a completely different experience than working with SeaSport on our last boat. I can't wait, only 10 more days till I go down there. I believe they hung the motors today and already have the interior built out side the boat.

it's 30x11' 3/4 walk around with twin 300 Suzuki. 4 sliding doors ( port, starboard, aft and the door access to the bath room is out side too.) I put a honda hydro buddy on it so I could use a hydraulic anchor drum and for my hydraulic pinch pot puller. simple lay out inside; starboard and port Bentley seats with socks, and on the port side I have a small settee(sp). It has a small berth up front that can sleep 3 men. does anyone know how to shrink pics on here, cause I got a bunch more?

AKCAT, I know , it's just a little Alloy boat .........You will just have to make do with it for awhile till something better comes along.

NOT

She is TOTALLY AWESOME and I would give away body parts to own her . You should have many years of pleasure with her.
Get her wet and ride her haaaard , they like it . Just treat her with respect and don't ignore her and all will be a good thing.

Oh yeah, Alloy babes LIKE their pictures taken and posted.
