PH-18 "DONE" but toooo cold to fish

Post by Jack Mowers »

Finished. After 7 months of nights after work and weekends it's all done, and it was all worth it. I looked back at the things I did right and the things I did wrong and the first thing that comes to mind is buying the Pre-cut Kit for this boat (good thing). What a time saver and the fit was perfect. The bad things I've forgot already. Only had the boat out one time for about 20 min. and she did every thing I hoped for. There are minor odds and ends to finish but I have till spring to finish up. I tried to add a photo but didn't work. If someone can help on how to add a photo let me know. I posted some photos in the gallery.

Thanks to all for the feed back. I never built anything on this scale before, but if you take your time it all fits together in the end. There is one other thing "Thank God for E-Bay. I'm going to post more photos in the next couple of days to show the build from the beginning.

Wow! Excellent boat! Beautiful work! There is a marina/boat dealer next to my office - I sent your pics to my co-workers and told them to check it out before spending 40K plus on a boat next door!

Now - enjoy the fruits of your labor!

Nice boat! I don't think I've ever seen a picture of a poorly-finished Phantom, and you are now a member of the club. Enjoy your phishing!
