It's never finished with a wooden boat always something to touch in,
but thats it for this week. Local to do where it was sitting on the trailer bunks. & one on the back Quarter where the eldest put a thinners rag on it !!!!! maybe a decal to cover.
If not to late in tomorrow will lift it off & settle it on the old sideboard & some 4"x2". tempted to do the lifter & motor but resisting as I'll only get paint on them.

Mmmh front warp was a bit on the skinny side but they said 1200K breaking so I tried it, yep just a little strech and without a safety net.
Found a use for the old sideboard & the car ramps, hope tressle boy comes by tomorrow as I'm not a 100% about the rear for working under !!!!!!!!!!

Edit: twitching Ahole think I'll wait till its back on a trailer before hanging the motor

One step forward , lots of head rubbing & a change of thinking.

Need some different ideas for fine tuning on the trim hoses .
Plate might be a tad high & might need to drop it all by 3/4 of an inch. see after its been running.

Lots & lots to sort on the motor rigging, really need to work on that. it's very very tight up to the transom when the lifter is full down and I'll need to get some custom bits made to get out of the corner.
still the full tilt calc worked out ok.

Dont panic on the last pick thats not a running height !!!
