Nice Ride. Do any paint work or just sanding and buffing?
Some of the things I done.
Build deck extension, new locks, carpet, TM tray, build step & handle to get in boat, Trolling motor, Blue Water LEDs, mount HB 581i up front on ram mount, install HB 798 on dash, tool holder,light & hat holder on side of dash, R & R motor and repair a couple of cuts in hull, remove fuel tank and clean it out, repair 2 places under batterys, install new fuel lines to and on motor, mount retractable transom straps, mount temp probe in livewell for dash gauge, trailer jack, replace butt seat, only thing I didn't get to do was replace the seats, ran out of money. Also converted front live well to a cooler.

Only sanding was at transom repair, the rest a little buffing.

That looks really good. I have been trying to decide if I should replace my worn out red carpet with gray and you just helped me make my final decision on that.
OH and in regards to that one picture with you standing on the bow: got a little captain in you?
Ricky were did you get the step & handle to get in boat?
That looks like something that would work for me.
I was also looking aty your deck extention and I must say GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now all I have to do is TRY to do one for me on my 94 Stratos.
awesome work!!!
I built the step out of 1/4" plate and 1" square tubing. Also showing how it works.

Looks great
nice add ons
Good looking rig. That deck extension is great, good job.

what do you think the weight of the deck extension is ? looks good my boat needs this in a bad way.
I'm guessing 100-125 lbs. I only had it on the lake 1 time and my speed was down, but my rpm's were down aslo. I had the WOT out of adjustment, and haven't had a chance to try again.

Looks great....I especially like the job you did on the deck extension
