Some shots from the weekend.
The Port side Jump seat (above the 200L fridge) will be the best seat in the house to watch the baits.
The bridge berth is surprisingly spacious and will be a beauty - the entrance opening design is really good - it makes access to the bridge queen berth easy while forming the 45 degree backrest for the jump seat.
The freezer will be the starboard side seat and is about 120 litres.
The Bridge floor is rock solid - you can jump up and down on it and it doesn't move a mm.
Some shots from today.
I am getting pretty excited.
There are lots of good looking alloy boats out there but I am pretty partial to the lines on this one......
Cant wait for paint!

I like how the bow flares out.
Thanks for the feedback.
I am getting pretty excited.
I think it will look good in the dark blue.
Docaster I will find out what the foam is and let you know.
Cheers,
Brad
im really looking forward to the outcome. i love the high flares . been sketching on the doodle pad next to the phone for years something like that. very jealous!
Hi Docaster,
I have checked with Moda and the foam they use is Military Spec Neolon closed cell buoyancy foam. It is carbon free and it is the safest foam to weld around.
As you can see it comes in sheet form which makes installation straight forward and it is impermeable to fluids, fuels etc.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Brad.

If you'll excuse my French for a minute, that looks shit hot!
I was there today talking with Luke and shane,its looking good.
I here you want it ready to fish the GCGFC light tackle tournament?
Mick.
Ha - thanks Woo - yep - it is a pretty good looking rump for an outboard boat.
I am there on Friday and will snap plenty of updated shots - there is lots happening this week.
Mick,
I would love it to be ready for the light tackle masters, I just got back from 3 days up at Fraser in the little boat and there were plenty up there which should be a good sign for the season down here.
I even caught one on the fly rod which was pretty cool!
Bannana, great build thread
Tangles KFC
Some more details shots:
This is the through hull transducer hole and surrounds.
The through hull tranny has its own water tight compartment (up to deck level) which is around mid ships rather than the rear of the boat for performance.
Also some detail on the Fuel water separator - neat work from Moda!!!!
