    My first boat restore

    I'm in the process of restoring my first boat, a 1978 Bass Cat. Just thought I'd share some of the pictures up to this point.

















    Still need to install carpet to sides. Starting on the rewire this weekend and that'll be it for this year because I can't wait to get it on the water. This winter I plan to repaint it blue and grey so it'll match the new carpet and upholstery.

    Thanks for posting the link to the pics of your old Bass Cat. It was fun to take a look at another ole rig like mine.
