What Did You Do To Your Boat This Week?

[Bobby Bass]

Roger. Seems like a decent way to change the look of a boat and not have to deal with painting aluminum.

 

[ReelSlim]

Anyone ever get vinyl wraps done on aluminum boats like the Aussies and Kiwis do? Seems like quite the thing down there. Surprised I don't see it here. Doesn't mean it isn't done here. I just haven't seen it.

I had the cab of my aluminum vinyl wrapped. Turned out good imo and still looks great. I use a quick wax spray a few times during the season and the water beads and rolls off it.

This is proof that even RC secretly thinks the commander looks better without the flybridge.

This build thread is pretty weak. Needs more pics.

You should really start a thread on this build! Looks great.

Dropped her off for the annual service. Once I get her back, she goes into the shop for a week or so for a cut and polish.

 

[SpringFever552]

Took the cover off and washed her up, pulled leg and serviced with new impeller and all seals/gaskets, checked all zincs, oil change on boat engines, water/gas filters changed, fired up and running beautifully, no leaks, ready for the upcoming season

Do you overnight in this size boat? Been on my mind for years for doing a podded version, factory shorepower etc.

Cut my transom last weekend and today my welder buddy welded up my splashwell. Tomorrow after work I’ll cut the drain holes and hole for the steering tube. Next weekend I’ll run the rigging and the weekend after I’ll be able to take it for a test run.

Yes, its perfect size for long weekends away, spent many of them doing just that all over this great island and over in Desolation area
1..Roscoe Bay
2..Teakerne Arm, heading back to boat after nice swim in Cassel Lake
3..Princess Louise/Chatterbox Falls (longest run I've made, launched in Comox)

I have the same boat, we’ve spent 4 nights on it no problem. The wife myself and our young son would overnight almost every weekend. We like to get to a dock with bathrooms and a shower if it’s extended stays a night or 2 is no problem. I now have a young daughter and the boy is now a good sized 11 year old. Starting to get a little tight but still ok. Was no problem when it was 3 of us as we all fit in cuddy no problem as it’s quite large. I don’t fit on the drop down dinette as it’s just a little short for me, I’m 5’11. I just gotta convince the boy to sleep up there and we’ll be good
