after review of my plans,I apologize for my mistake of leaving battons a little proud. do like Peter says.After kerfing front of battens,I drilled small hole in them and using small wire,pulled them toward build form.after flip glued and removed wires.

The battons should sit a little taller than the frames.The ply gets screwed to them-not the frames

Installing your battons might help.I'm sure the bottom is curved-not flat.might have to kerf the front of the battons and wire them down to the build form(I had to do this on my Bo-Jest)Makes it easier to fit ply.maybe add to keel and after fairing,have enough to screw to

Wow! those are really nice;compared to the cast aluminum ones I gotI even got a couple little ones for fendersI'm putting my deck fills away from each other(one on each side of the boat)

Suppose since it's motorized,it'll have be titled and have regurgitration #'s :lol:ooops meant regestration #'s

I can't wait until you're in my situation-buying all the necessary items to finish.it's the law in minnesota,if one has a sleeping area or enclosed cabin,to have co2 detector and fume detector.Wow those are spendy.I'm gonna need a bigger boat to haul it all.

Can't go wrong with Red ,White and Blue.

Back at it again.Shops so hot in daytime so have to piddle about in evenings.Got everything for rear enclosure so that's next(while still in shed)And then figure out anchor wench painting kinda sucks but it's only a camp boatI've got numbers!!Yippee

having to use little wranglers room at critical times is a pita.I have a coffee can with wood pellets in it when I'm in the boat.no smell ,even after a few days.just have to put it where I won't trip over it(like in my phone booth toilet area)

:D I used to have a steel 24 ft pontoon boat (old weeres ,I think with a 15 evenrude on it.it had enough power I think and moving around the dock was like piloting the queen mary but was nice to fish off of. the pontoons rusted out so now I have the plans for the super huck.Havn't started on the hul...

Sorry, Carl.The tank I installed in "Chug-A-Lug is a 20 gallon moeller tank-26 inches long,11.5 inches wide,19 inches tall.mounted for'ward of helm.Am planning on water tank on port side.

Is that moeller tank one of those 19 gal side tanks? Maybe you could get a port and starboard setup.I thought of those for "Chug" but my frames were to close to fit. Jamestown site has the two tanks.

On the old Chris-Craft,the cabin ceiling frames are rounded and battons fore and aft.there is a thin board attached to cabin sides and cut into frames IMG_1159[1].JPG I'm assuming the cabin top frames are cut from mahogany.the side windows are fixed -the front window bottom tips for'ward.

I've got a few of those window catches from junk van windows .allows window to tip out on bottom and secures window when inbeen trying to fit on chugs windows.can't quite get it yet

Or a power window from a car or a hand crank one
