    I live in western Colorado and always wanted a boat, but they aren't very popular where I live. But I ended up buying a 1975 deep v with the original evinrude 85 2 stroke. From the original owner. I restored the entire boat and did all of the upholstery myself and the woodworking. It's a real head turner now. And I learned how to do everything watching UA-cam videos

    🌴Ahhh yes another gem 😆👍🏼 ,but the forward console is a great idea ! Plus the deck in front were you could cast net or fish off of , as for the bare wood 😖 ya some of the boat builders back in the day were a bit unscrupulous, you boys got your work cut out for ya .It’s gonna be fun getting the A-B foam in the center tunnel but it should stiff’n it up , smart idea replacing the bulkheads those plywood one’s were toast , when this boat is done it’s gonna last a lot longer than it’s previous 25 yrs , and it’s almost guaranteed that it’s gonna be alot more fun to use ! Hope the nice weather holds out 😎 guy’s , can’t wait to her done 👍🏼👊🏼

    What a rad boat! These smaller power catamarans are awesome. I have a 14ft Livingston with a little half cabin on the front out here in Southern California, and it is a badass boat for its size. I've taken it out to the Channel Islands many times, 25+ miles offshore, and have never felt unsafe in it. That 18ft'er looks super capable! Also they do really well with weight up front to help keep the bow down in waves/chop, so your buddy wanting a forward console is making a good choice 👍

    Hey pal so I have a Carolina skiff that needs some love. I'm on the west coast in Tampa bay. How do I get ahold of you to possibly have you fix it up as I watched a past post and you said you'd be doing work to tour viewers boats. I'd be very blessed if I can get on a list or something and possibly have a chance to have you help me turn this 98 17 Carolina skiff into my dream boat.
