Build Nearing Final Stages

I have been either working on a place for this drift boat or on the boat itself for three years. Here are a few teaser pictures of some of the parts that I have ready. This was originally a 16' 6" Tatman kit from almost eight years ago. I bought it from a fellow in Bellingham that had stored it at Tatman for a year and then finally came down and picked it up. I then stored it a couple of years or so while I prepared a workspace. To make a long story shorter, here's a few pictures.

Rick, your boat is looking good.  

Don't fret the setback.  Enjoy the festival.  And keep in mind my wife's favorite expression when I start obsessing, "perfection is the enemy of good enough."

I know, I hate it, too.  But in the case of a vessel that's built to be abused, she may be right.
