I can’t be everywhere, let alone Australia. :lol:
Wish I had thought of the concept years ago, it really does work great.

To all of you guys who have commented and posted with kind words of encouragement, a big thank you. 8)
Today my son registered the boat and trailer.
We will post some pics very soon of the casting decks and the splash of “Bare Bones”...

Thank you Jeff! The paint is EMC, fought with it a little early on. In the end, it turned out nice.

WillG, great to hear from you and thanks for the nice compliment. :D
