Here is a picture of the helm seat, after painting the top sides, I will be getting it out of the garage and on to a trailer and take it to St Pete Florida for the Yamaha 70 hp then I can post better pictures outside of my little garageIMG_20211201_151853861_HDR.jpg
Thanks for the details... beautiful work!

She looks great and will do well on those big reservoirs out your way. If you need any help in selecting a prop let me know. Tom

Boat looks awesome. You will love the 70 yamaha! Why did you go all the way to Central Marine? Was that the only deal? Great guys, but I thought I was nuts to drive 1.5 hours to them when I bought a 40.

Dealers near Chattanooga said it would be end of this year before they could get one, Tom, central Maine is a big company and sea trials is part of the price, they should pick out the right prop, I think I read your thread about props, they boat is staying in Florida, anyone have advice about getting it registered?, We think we found information for it, looks like they come out and inspect the boat
