wifes boat

#1

Post by welderbob »

someone asked if I've done custom stuff.A former employee wanted a boat and we where a little slow,so I said there the aluminum go for it All I wanted was the money for the aluminum and a little something for the overhead. The boat got pretty far along and no money. The guy left and I got stuck with a unfinished boat. My wife was mad,something about everyone else getting a boat. So I finished the boat and gave it ti her.

24' x 8'6" 5086 1/4' 3x3x3/8" tees 3" duramax "D" rubber, 200hp Honda,Northstar electronics
The hull is painted ,but the inside is bare to cut down on maintenance

Happy welding

Thanks for posting picture........ Looks like it is built heavy duty. Nice touch with the rubber. So does your wife run her.

A real beauty! Nice and simple and I bet she is pretty economical to run.

Nice work!

Cool trick to cool off the wife, nice little touch in powder blue for her.

So, do you get, "Sorry hun!, I gotta catch the tide, make yourself a peanut butter sandwich for dinner" ??????

Nice work. mty

Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.
