Adding the Trim

I have stained and grouted the seat. The latest purchase is a Beugler Pinstriping Tool.   Before, I would have to tape and then hand paint every stripe.  With the Beugler, I can use a straight edge and apply the paint quite quickly.

After adding most of the trim, I placed the windshield and am now trying to decide if I want to build my own wooden frame windshield or go back with the original.  The wooden frames look really nice and this is a super nice boat.

I have added the dash gauges and made all the wiring connections. Next would be the windshield and then the engines. Just about time to go boating.

There’s a lot of gauges in the dash. With two engines, there’s two of everything except for fuel.  There’s only one fuel tank, thank goodness. With gas prices today, who can afford two tanks.

I’m trying to make up my mind on what kind of handles to apply to the engine hatches.  It would be nice to have something that goes from one end to the other so you can open them from the front or the back of the boat.  I want it to make sense.
