Re: 1986 Tidecraft Wildfire Restore/ All Rotted

Here is a couple pictures with our lights!

Here at the dock with reflection on the water...

We also have got a vinyl cutter with some great software I am working on. I cut out some standard letters for my boat. I am still thinking of a name for my baby!!!!

I am having trouble uploading pictures on here so im gonna try and get the others up soon. I am gonna gelcoat the whole boat this winter and I have a really good plan for some other things. I want to make another pod for the passenger and round out some areas. Also I want to put cooler in deck. Also I want to extend the deck up higher all the way to the driver/passenger pod. Im gonna draw something up for you all soon and get some suggestions. I def am gonna have to paint/gelcoat it though. After seeing the nicks and cuts in the coat after compounding I am gonna have to redo the whole thing. I was afraid of that and should have done it before hand. But!!!! More fun work to do!

Got some more pics to upload...... I just finally got this dang phone working where i took the pics!!!!! I had to move from the house... Long story... The next door ppl were not complaining too much but I did live in a 200k house and somehow still got robbed for approx 30k worth of things!

But... I am out of my depression and starting to feel better now. So I can now get to work on my boat. 1 good thing................. They did not steal my boat!!!! But the cops had to take fingerprints off of it cause they had to move it to bring their truck up and load up all the things in my house. They got everything, my guns.... xbox's..ps3's...3TV's....my safe....games...movies.....

Anyways.. Sorry I got carried away. but I am ok now and did not want to burden anyone with all this. I have got my new business up and running though!!!!!!!!

Also I got plenty of fun fiberglass work to do on my boat still! And after looking at my buddy GT1M I am thinking of painting mine instead of gel coating... Here is some more pics of it.. I still have yet to put trim on edges of carpet but im looking for a taller trim so I can put lights in the trim also. I have made a drill press table that fits perfect for the lights and if I can find a carpet trim that is a bit taller then I can use it and put a blue or red light strip across and it would look sexy!..

If any suggestions please chime on in! Y'all got me addicted now I have to go to Boats restore Anonymous! hehehe!

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Jeremy...

Sucks that you had so much taken from you...

Just remember the Man upstairs has a wild and wacky plan up his sleeve, and while we don't have a clue as to what it is...in the end, if our faith remains steadfast, He will look out for us!

Now, I am glad to hear that you got a little biz going, may it be prosperous and live long...

As far as the boat, Man! that definitely looks like a UFO just sitting there on the water...Way Cool!

Can't wait to see what you come up with for the re-design and re-finish...

Best Regards and Best Wishes, my friend...

Gus

PS-if you ever want to unload, shoot the breeze, or just BS, fire me a PM...

Re: 1986 Tidecraft Wildfire Restore/ All Rotted

Thanks Gus! Yeah I have somewhat gotten over it but its still in my head lots. Again... they could have taken my boat and I really would have been tore up much worse! Im sure the people that did it ill get theirs. Karma will get them. As for the boat, I cant wait to draw up some plans on how im gonna do it. I still am unsure of the paint/gelcoat deal. or even the colors I wanna go with. I did get all of the orange wildfire and all that off the boat. So now its offically a jeremy made boat! I must say your boat is looking very very nice man!! You have done a great job on it! It is so nice when all the grinding is all done and you get to do the building part. I was excited as heck when I started glassing mine. Still got a ways to go though. With moving and all i been at a halt. But its about to get down and dirty time! hehehe

Well!!!! I'm back! I'm about to get some seats put in and cut out the driver console area and make a new one along with one that matches for the passenger side. Also bringing back the deck where its up level with the front all the way back to the consoles.
