Finally got to start building since the storm, last week fixing the fence this week dedicated to the build heres a few pics

a couple more

it wasnt easy but i was able to put both catwalks up without slicing into them to make the turn for the bow

It will have a sealed floor

looks good!

I'll put up a few more for tonight an I'll post some more tomorrow

Looking good man!

Looks good. I like the sport deck

Man that looks really nice ...I really envy you guys that build your own boats id love to do a project like this but ain't really a welder lol

Looks good so far man. I'm guessing it's going to be a CC rig judging by the size of the rear deck?

Thanks really like working with aluminum only thing is this one is for someone else , built mine a while back heres a pic of it

Yep it's gonna have a cc going to tackle that after i get caught up on the welding

some more pics

Yup, lot of welding to do. lol

Looks great!

Boat looks good man and who says you need a shop.

I like how you designed the front of the boat.. kinda like a gator trax.. Looks awesome man, good job

I have the shop its just full of other stuff at the moment, heres a couple more pics

heres a pic with the console

Man that thing is looking good.

Thanks been hard at it I figure about 2 or 3 days left if everything goes as planned and she'll be ready for her new owner.

I pass by your place every once and awhile. Was wondering who was building those boats.

Will you be working on it this weekend?

Might stop by and check that thing out.

Should be around feel free to stop by might take a lil break Saturday morning and take mines out for a ride

Finally got to the point to do some leak testing today, filled it up with about five inches of water everything good, let me say about the only thing to get that much water out of a boat fast than them two big 1 1/2" drains would have to be a 4" pump don't want to be in the boat and realize you forgot to put one of them in.

Heres a few pics of the console

Well that's a unique design for a console. From the front it look like a boiling pot sitting there . But all bs aside its coming out real nice man, keep it up...

Yeah it does look like that in the picture the idea with the round instead of flat like most consoles is to help with the speed lost due to the wind hitting and going around verses hitting a flat surface and slowing you down heres another picture

I admire your skills. I have a question though about the rear deck. Is that going to interfere with the operation of the motor?

From what I've been told and have seen it shouldn't an if it does we will just have to address that problem with some revisions to that issue remember it is a custom hull if we customize it more we will ... Lol

Btw thanks for the compliment

Looking good Marshmaster... I like your console idea. Keep posting. This is a nice review.

Well going to put up the last pictures that I have of the boat it just left with its new owner can't wait to see what it's going to look like completely finished, heres the front and back deck with hatches.

Heres a couple of the built in ice chest, good for at least a case and a bag of ice.

A couple more side views.

Damit Damit Damit. I wanted to stop by your shop this weekend but was to busy.

I guess I will have to see he next one but I really liked the layout of that boat.

Well I picked up my boat today and would like to say it is everything I asked for and more. Shannon does awesome work and if there is anyone out there that is ready or thinking of having a boat built do yourself a favor and give him a call you will not regret it.

So................you got it painted and rigged out yet?

Thanks jp hope you enjoy it now slap some paint an a motor on it and post some speeds

This boat turned out nice!

Shannon can work magic with anything alumium. I have seen this boat, it looks awesome . If you want a solid weld built boat for a good price give him a call. I am sure you won't be disappointed !

did you use box tubing or angle to widen the gunnel? looks good.
