Late Oct - Late posting

The progress has slowed a little as one member of team restore acquired a new job and plans to sale and move closer to the project and the other took a bank roll to vegas with plans of coming home with money for parts upgrades....you would think that UCLA would cover seven @#!&!@#! points!! Uh no, and the last leg of my 8-team parlay failed to cover and upset my upgrade plans.

Prior to departure, we successfully fit up the back with a sheet of 1/2" and will be glassing that in, weather permitting. We are also trying to determine which option will be best for accessing the transom area, either cutting the piece and making a hatch or buying several hatches and installing them....leaning towards the purchase at this point. We also started forming up the console and have learned that it will take a considerable amount of sanding to get the shape and look that we want.
Here is the one pic that i got prior to the batteries dying, again.
