Maiden Voyage

I've mostly finished the boat. Took it out for some lake trials today, it didn't sink or do anything unexpected. Just a few more details, paint, latches, etc, but all and all ready to float. Next weekend Desolation/Gray, the water should still be up there, so hopefully I bring it back in one piece.

Thanks to everyone who posts (guilty of not doing that enough) this site has been a valuable resource.
Take a look

It wasn't intended on being a primer but it's a hell of a lot brighter on the lake than in my garage. So I think that I might tone it down a few shades.

As for the Honky I didn't make any changes intentionally. As far as I know its to specs and the other the other guys messed up.
