Paddle Wheel Boat

1/11/2018
​Well, having the boat off the trailer allows us to forge ahead to the refit. I planned out how I wanted the rear removed, by placing a double row of tape on each side of the cut I wanted made. Since I fiber glassed the hull, Terry made sure to cover up all the way while cutting the bottom of the boat. The rear came off all in one piece.

​Been Raining for weeks. We needed the rain, but sure make it hard to get to the boat to work on it. Got boat stripped down and now ready for next step. Need to find a motor of 100 hp or more, with automatic transmission, and fits in a 3-4' footprint. Now just need to find a place I can go pick a motor out.

​Finally got back to the boat again! Started removing aft inner frames and boards to clean up for new framing to attach.
