summer boat project

[Mossback]

with so many "does my camo match" and "does this arrow wrap look cool enough" threads lately i thought i would post up a little summertime project a buddy and i have been working on.to break up the monotany for the people that are not going to lay the wood to a deer this weekend.....She was really rough when we got her but over the past 4 months we have brought a classic 1979 bertram sportfish back to life, we got her for the right price and have put some serious sweat equity into it over the summer....did i mention it was hot this summer, really friggin hot

The story behind the name, right about the time we bought the boat my duck hunting lab, "LIMIT", got sick and died in the prime of her life at 6yrs old....we were mulling over names for the boat when my buddy said lets name it "LIMIT"....i had thought about it too, it stuck so my pup ended up living on

its not done yet, but it is 100% fishable now, so we are trying to use it as much as possible till winter and we redo the inside....its still has its faults but for a 30 yr old boat she looks pretty decent.... we took it out last saturday for a quick 50 mile trip.....The results were pretty good
