WIP being my work in progress, and that being my boat. I learned a lot working on this boat, probably as much if not more than my first car. I’ve learned carpentry, demolition, safety, fiberglassing, Gelcoat, and painting/body work. Next up is upholstery, electrical and tuning and syncing a twin carb motor. Oh, I also learned a little vinyl wrapping as well.
I had worked on it a little before I moved into my house, here it is when I brought it home for the build.
and here it is after painting.
I have since hung the motor on it and run it a few times. I found that 125 horses are plenty thirsty compared to the 25 I have on my 14 foot fishing boat though! She drinks the fuel when running it hard…

You’ll have to excuse my sons language in the video. I didn’t care because I was too stoked about getting it running on water after owning it for almost 10 years.
