Last summer I took on a project that I didn't think would ever hit the water. Well, Father's day weekend is the targeted splash down for the ol' Tyee! Right now she's getting a tune up from a professional, should be back in my loving arms next week.
I spent a couple weekends getting the wiring "just enough" done, hooking up bilge, aerator, fuel lines, and a few other tweaks.
I still have a few things to do, including completing the back casting deck/seat/storage box combo. I have a vision of making it completely modular - as in being able to slide the seats and storage box in and out of the boat via a track system. Kinda like the Minn Kota Power Drive quick release plates. If I can find some brackets at an affordable price I'm doing it!
Here's the link to the old thread.

I'll post more pics when I get the boat back. Overall I'm fairly happy with the outcome. There are a dozen things I would have done differently but hey, lessons learned right?
