South Georgia FS19

Post by fishgitr »

This will be my build thread. I am going to pickup plywood from Jeff and Reid next week. I hope to get my bulkheads/ frames set up this weekend.

I have attached a link to my Facebook page for the FS19. I will be posting in both places but there will probably be more pictures on Facebook than here. Let the good times roll!

Looking forward to it!

How are you setting up the layout for it?

If you are familiar with contender boats. Most of them have a open front area with a fish box in the floor, no step up deck up front. The back I plan to do a live well/ storage boxes in the corners with a motor well in the center. Super simple, light lay out.

In a couple months being able to sand outside would be a pleasure activity :roll:
