I try to enjoy the boats now because I won't be able to later. I'll have to get a turd churner if I make it to "retirement" age. My back and shoulder will not tolerate the go fast boats when I'm older...

After 3 months, 20 lb weight loss, 200 lbs of screws, the deck is done.
Hope to start on railings next wk, and bar after that 🍺
Now hoping to get enough time on the Convincor to get it wet before winter.I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Looks great. Man, that’s a lot of treated wood. No wonder they kept running low, you were buying it all! Lol.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

That looks a hell of deal for family fun. I guess planting trees or a B.A. fence is next on the list-
Very nice job

...and of course the infamous warning sign..."I Don't Swim In Your Toilet, Please Don't Pee In Our Pool!" Looks great so far
