smccormick Posted December 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Here's the photo I was going to post last week. Frank fixed whatever was wrong and I'm back on track... on the photo uploads, not the boat construction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsharpe Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 I love this boat and have the wild idea it would be nice to build one. But after looking at all his work I'm thinking how much I love the Shamrock I already have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you know it, you'll be cruising the local waterways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chris Beebe Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 Whats going on .How is your boat going. Give me some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccormick Posted January 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 I have the bracket boxes all glassed and only the rear most center box in the boat to do. Well, I almost have them done. The glass on the bottom of the last box decided to lift and create a ~three inch air bubble that now needs to be repaired. It happened after I did the peel ply and walked away. Checked on it a couple hours later and never even saw it developing. Laying out seacock placement, transducer, bilge pumps before I glass the rear bilge so I can isolate the core on the penetrations then add the top layer. Haven't taken any photos recently not much to be seen. Fuel tanks were supposed to be shipped this week but haven't heard anything on that yet.

smccormick Posted January 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 A photo to go with the last post. Starting to layout the rear most bilge area. The pump you see there is an 1100 for primary. It sits down on the flats quite nicely. There will be a 2000 added on the other side of the keelson as a backup.

smccormick Posted January 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Unfortunately this project has been moved to the back burner for a couple of months while I complete another. I'll have much less time, but will still work on it when I can. It was supposed to be done for an outing in June. Not really looking good now.

Guest Chris Beebe Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I know that feeling, Money jobs come first or honey do list which trumps everything. Good luck my friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Ludwig Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I feel your pain. At least I don't work for a living anymore, but seems like i got more done on my boats BEFORE I retired. Miss Debbie gave up on the honey-dos long ago, but she's special and lets me get away with it. the list just keeps getting longer. Actually, I do finish the little jobs on the list. Or at least start them. It's the biggies, like new counter tops and tile backsplashes that are waiting. Just keep plugging It'll all get finished some day....good Lord willin' and the crick don't rise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smccormick Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Here's some poser progress for the day. Tanks arrived today, ordered on 10/25/16. Customized, custom tanks. Relocated and reoriented all the fittings so that no fuel lines will be routed through the console. Eliminates needing to use explosion proof everything in the console to meet abyc specs. Also leaves the console uncluttered for access. Fittings will be accessible from the console through a cutout in the frames after the sole is installed. There may be some creative cussing to make it happen. Aft Forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
