I do not know a lot about the gel-coat process, but couldn't you have filled the holes from the trolling motor before the new gel coat was done.

yes, but it would cost....plus I liked how the Fortrex mounted on the rubber spacers...without them under TM mounting plate, the plate didn't sit very flat...the Bee has a bit of curve/twist where it mounts so I needed to install spacers anywayQuote:

heres a few more of new gelcoat
more...
Thanks...here are some recent pictures we have taken...after the new Attwood latches were installed...finished mounting the Fortrex, Hydrowave and newly painted bow control panel surround...waiting on the "Kick'n Bass deck mount" for mounting 998si in front of trolling motor tray...that way I can still utilize the un-used Ram mount for another future 700 series Humminbird unit or for mounting a GoPro camera...1 1/2" Ram mount with long extension could not handle the weight of the unit in really rough water...Quote:

blacked out windshields with Plastidip...should just peel right off if it doesn't work out...I think it looks much better..I never looked thru them anyway...
finished product windshields installed...(except cleaning the outside).lol
preview of new seats...had a little stitching proplem, so once fixed, I will post pics of complete install.
Again really looks great. Work table looks familiar !!! Post pics with seats when done. Sent pm with contact number so I can talk to you about procedure you went thru. May want to redo mine?
okQuote:

C&O Marine has been advertising windshields for Bumblebees.
Great job! The boat looks great. Great decision to rehab the 2100. That boat will hang with any boat in rough water. Now...You can take the money you would have spent on the new boat, invest it, and in ten years, go buy a house. Or better yet, retire early and fish more.
retiring early sounds good! 14 years to go...Wish this winter would get over already so we could finish...Got most of the electronics reinstalled...got new Aurora custom cover today before the snow came....we have 6 inches right now...more to come...wont be working on boat for a few more days now...seats should be back in about a week...wont be long!!
got one of the Boat Buckle rod straps installed today...it was pretty easy and should work much better than the old rubber bungie type.
Kill3r bee, did you get her finished? If so where are finished pics?
a few coming in a minute
heres the buckles done
I have almost got her done....I need to really clean her up...still need to install new livewell bubbler, a few more LED lights in compartments...waiting on a few decals...cd player and speakers...seams the list goes on and on....new steering wheel too...
I will go ahead and post a few teaser pics...but remember, it hasn't been waxed or polished fully yet...These are before seats were installed or cowl decals finshed
