Is that a Minn Kota Riptide trolling motor? I have one and love the spot lock feature. It looks nice on your beautiful build and I'm sure you'll love it.

My phones auto correct is great. I typed “it was pecan ha it did it again.

Lexan, clear lexan that I painted from behind.

As for the trolling motor I got it specifically for the spot lock and the auto compass

Motor is on, but waiting for a prop. Going to try a 17 pitch first. I wound up letting the dealer bolt it on, but I took it home to do the rest. hopefully it is here Monday.

Remaining tasks
1. Cushions are being made for the front
2. Still trying to figure out seating for the back. I bought one of those cool mesh seats but it was 21 inch wide and I just don’t have that kind of room.
3. Final scupper hole placement and install
4 Door for center console
5. Grab rail. I have been reviewing all the carbon fiber posts and might just make it myself. I saw they had green carbon fiber that looked cool
6. Casting platform.
7. I have all my registration paper work ready to go and will send it in on Monday.

Getting closer
