my skeleton weighs 225. I might stop by the boat shop before the winter is out. That is if I am welcome. Maybe bring Pocket with me.



Now thats some funny sh*t right there!

Boy this is going right where I figured it would.... how could you expect anything else from you guys!

And yes Kman you and Rog are more than welcome, like I had said drop me a line and swing on out and check out what we are up to, hopefully I'll be able to provide my services to other MAFF members as well. Let em know when you wanna swing in with yours Sinista!

Had some time after lunch so I finished the deck lids and started mounting them till I ran out of hardware. Because Sam is using the same setup as my boat I used all my gear for mock up and installed his fishfinder. The base stays on the boat but he can remove the transducer with his trolling motor and the power is being provided by the sealed battery that came with the unit. Also just so happens that it fit perfectly underneath the front deck either laying down or standing up. He'll be able to remove everything, save the mount, bring the whle mess inside to charge and store. The trolling motor will be removed using MinnKota's quick release mount system.
For those wondering the red and blue straps on the deck are actually the handles to open the lids and they double as rod holddowns. Sam had brought them out with his stuff and shot me the idea and I think it works brilliantly!!

Decided to throw my pedestal in for the last couple shots cause I know thats what he's gonna end up with.... Very Happy Once you get use to standing up on these you never look back!


Enjoy Gentlemen!

Very impressed boys! Unbelievable job!

Excellent job! Time to take it down the cape and check her out.
Did you have to shorten the shaft on the trolling motor?

So that whole deck comes out for transport? Looks awesome - much better than my old Jon boat setup!!! Lol

Both.

Dan and I have yet to install the LEDs for Sam on this bad boy. It will light up like christmas, inside and out.

He's getting the whole BFB light package (to the extent that he wants) Very Happy
