Dude, you started the thread??!! Awesome work man. I just came back from 3 weeks off and caught the thread. I want to do a CC some day so I'm paying close attention to this one. Already up and going too?? You're putting us to shame man.

If anything is gonna happen its out on the water boss.

I like the seat pads you applied to your console seat.

The wife don't like the boat since I took the running seats out for total fishin' action. I'm thinking of a folding bench seat, but don't want to put out $300-$500.00 for a factory folding bench seat - and when folded down, I want to have it act as active deck (not in the way.). hmmmm....... got me thinkin.

That boat is a fishing machine, good job on the cc looks like a it just came out of the factory. how is that motor running, those johnssons never die. nice boat sir.

The johnson is on its third boat now and still reading 150 psi on all cylinders.Its a sweet ride if you are a serious fisherman.

I think there gonna be like twins,mine was built watching ebay for everthing for super cheap.24vt trolling mtr 250,helm and cables 50,shifters and throttle 25, deals like these brought my boat to life so slowly i almost spazed out.lol But now the fun part has started,the little details. Still thinking about the seating in rear.
