Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Thanks Craig, I hope to be finished in a couple weeks. I'm still waiting on my new fence skinning and now I'm waiting on Friday for my painter to come paint some parts. It's a pretty simple build, we are gonna build a box in front of the console that will have a livewell in it.

Got some work done on the boat over the last few days. We temporarily mounted the rails so we could place the furniture and got it mounted. Also mounted the console and installed the steering, got the fishing seats in also... Then I took the fencing back off so I could prep it for paint, got all the fencing rub rails and some other small parts painted yesterday and my new fence skin will be here this week so making some major progress!





Nice shine

looks great Ryan!

That's going to look awesome. Hurry up so we can look at it!!!

Man...I gotta get to work. You've inspired me to get off my butt!

Thanks guys, my paneling will be here tomorrow so maybe you'll see some updates this weekend but no promises. Ty, glad I got you motivated, I've missed your masterpieces

Updates... Almost done with the fence paneling!

Damn, Ryan.
We're gonna have to start calling you MrTYler

WOW!!!

I think you're just trying to make me look bad now

Keep up the good work...one of these days I'll get back to work on mine too!

That thing is sweet Ryan! Should bring in some cash to finish the BEAST!

Thanks guys,It would be a complete honor to be called mr TYler...lol

I'll admit I stay depressed about my southbay just sitting there waiting on me to finish her, I have some awesome plans on how I'm gonna rig it out and finish the interior that I guarantee have never been done on a toon but more on that later...

Super fun to watch this this restoration, great job! I love the color choices! How much do you think you will get out of it when your done? Where did you buy that controller?

Thanks mike, I'm hoping I'll get close to the $10,000 mark but well see. I bout the controles from a local marine shop 59 marine... They always have used loose engines along with other parts.

Cool, thanks!

Well boat is finished and for sale! I finished up all the little thing the other day and had my graphic guy make me some graphics... Turned out really nice, also had my mechanic do a lil adjusting on the engine and now it runs perfect. Took it out the other day, and with 4 adults 2 kids gear and a full tank running into the wind on a rough day we got 30mph. It could use some prop work and a jack plate and I bet 40 is obtainable..
