I appreciate all the kind words! I've built a bunch of boats over thr years now and see them go, intake pride in what indo but it had kinda got to the point , it's just another boat. This one has been a bit of a challenge and I'm super pleased with how it's turned out.

Just curious what a build like that runs ? It's for a friend that's just about family. We havnt even really discussed the labor yet. I've got roughly 150 hours in it now, probaly another 15 or so to wrap up. Think I've got right at $9k in aluminum in it, probaly $1k in argon, welding wire, and various consumables like saw blads and grinding wheels. I've probaly got another $1k between stainless bolts and latches and a few of the various rigging things I've had to have during thr built to ve able to incorporate or cut the holes for. He took care of the motor and clutch, prop and all the associated stuff. If I had to build one trunk key, rigged boat motor and trailer I would guess it would be in the neighborhood of $80k or better even.

Swamp, thanks for fixing the photos, not sure what I did wrong. You didn't do any thing wrong with the pictures. You can only post 10 pictures per post. I just copied and pasted the remaining ones in two post.
It takes a long time to grow an old friend.
