    Engine being mounted. The fan motor mount turned out to be an excellent place for the hoist.

                  It's just that it keeps getting better and better.

                    That's been the plan all along. I'm just not sure how I'll know when it is finished. lol

                    The next pics should be of the outboard running, then to the water with it, to see if it floats.

                            It'll draft about an inch wide open, just gotta be quick with a gig.

                                Along those same lines, we've been discussing adding a "flounder wheel" to the rear of the boat for some high speed gigging action. The theory is that the spiked wheel will roll on the bottom, gigging flounder and flinging them into the boat from behind. We still have to work out all the details, then clear its use with TPWD. Should be easy enough.
