    Wife has started the upholstery. We are going with the original rainbow color theme.

    Work continues on the stringers . I got one side removed and hull sanded down to install the new stringers. All the backings for the swim platform and the rudder are rotted out more cutting and installing new wood.

    Looking good, Michael! Glad you kept the rainbow stripes, that's old school for sure. Nice work. Are you keeping the Mustang?

    I'll be over in your neck of the woods next week, I need to stop in and see this in person.

    This is a rerun right? Same color scheme as mine an all. Rainbow strips will look awesome!

    Rainbow strips look good against that bright white.

    Work continues first two stringers are made and coated with CPES yesterday I epoxied them in . Also I found the backing for the rudder was totally rotted away. So far every piece of wood in this boat is rotted and needs replacement.

    Do you have something to use to find what degree of angle to cut?
