Things sort of fell in place so I lit up the outboard. That part went well and seems like it might do its thing if it stays above the water

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Cut a hole in the side today up near the gunwale for a bilge pump through hull. This is what it looked like, strong 5/8 to light 3/4 inch of glass. Not sure if this tank will float or not

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Well she poked her nose out into the sunshine today. For those who never saw it she went from this
To this
Still a lot of finish work left but I do not want to go through another winter wondering if she will run or not.
Will know more in a few days.

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Thanks Jeff and Glossie
AA is in Alaska now and will be ready for some fishing in a few days I bet. And Capeman and spouse are not far behind them. We are pretty pumped to see all of them.
