What's everyone think of this design behind the back window? I think I will make it at right angle to topside and roof instead of the angle that most have... humm 
Honestly I don't know about putting a command bridge on, i hate to say it but man she looks sweet as is...

For starters she thought I was going to kill myself as the Coquihalla was closed due to a snow storm both there and back as well as Roger's Pass so i had to stay at my in-laws overnight in Vernon... She said if I was that stupid I deserved it! West of Calgary traffic was going 20km/hr with over 1' of snow on the road. North of Calgary I was heading for the guardrail after hitting some black ice but my guardian angle was watching out for me
5 hours later @ a staging area East of Revelstoke waiting for the road to open... The semi accident was between Sicamous and Salmon Arm on my way to the Island.

I think the lesson of this story is Rob don't ever be that stupid again!! 
I got home on Dec 21st, looking back and thinking of what could have been scares me more now than then I do allot of driving and many many road trips but this was one of the worst.
The worst land storm I experienced was when i was 14 years old and moving from NFLD to NS, I was with my dad in a 1ton flat deck loaded down with mile high furniture etc when we hit a bad snow storm just outside of Codroy Valley "Wreck House", the wind literally lifted the back tires off the road and that scared me... the winds there blows trains off the tracks!

Is it just me or does that trailer look a little short? Once the engines are back there your going to have to adjust the trailer balance by moving the axles. Doesn’t look like there is much room to come back.
really nice boat can’t wait to see the first fish on the deck!

Ya might have to adjust or just go for a longer trailer, we'll see the loads once completed... but with the transom notched it wouldn't look too bad with not much engine overhang, muhahaha
