Re: Woods Skoota 32DM
I paid a guy to do the bendwork. But the design ideas were mostly me. He did a bunch of other pieces, because I am using a pelican and a rope across the opening.

Hole prep today. The end lockers are plywood, which I regret. And had I been smart, those would be baitwells and a kill box. Overbored to 1/2" for 1/4" holes.

Making better holes now is hard.
Lifeline stanchion hole prep.
Getting stuck in here would be bad in this heat.

Re: Woods Skoota 32DM
Well, been busy this week fabbing and doing plumbing. The plumbing has been fun. Lotsa itsy bitsies. 8 trips to the hardware store. Had to add a 0.65L pressure tank and an overflow drain. Had a few leaks, but nothing major. Shower handle was a bit wrong. All in all, seems to be functioning. Gotta install thru hulls for poop tank vents.
Survey is August 12. Lots to do.
