Chris built the boat over the winter of 2012-2013 and finished it in April of that year. The total project took about 150 hours.  Here are some pictures of that build:

  2. How are you straping the rear of the boat down for trailering. Its a little different than most boats since these have a unique design extending beyond the transom. Almost done with mine. Thanks.

    1. From Chris: I strapped the boat using a tow strap starting at the trailer on one side, going up and over the boat and down to the trailer on the other side. I used cut down pool noodles to keep the strap from damaging the paint on the boat. Good luck on your build!
