New Lights !

I wanted a differant style bow light ,so I ordered a STEALTH -L.E.D. Bow light & i hate those plug-in Anchor lights , so I did something out of the Norm. ,I placed it on the motor cover !

A lot of fly fishing/flats boats do that with the stern light...Definately out of the way...Question -did you have an issue with clearence on that fuel fitting?

I never saw that stern light on any other boat , but i do know that it is Not a legal anchor light...... because its needs to be seen 360 degrees from another vessel .....  I do not plan on anchoring up for the night , so its fine for me .

No Fuel issues !  However i could not put the fuel fill connection in the gunnel because of the boat being foam fill & the fuel vent is not on the outside hull ......

The fuel fill hose is under the front console seat & the fuel vent is on the starboard side of the center console ....

Bimini Top & Strata Glass Windshield

I angled the Bimini top forward ,instead of behind the CC, so it wouldn't be in my way when fishing ! Also added hard Strata ( EZ2CY ) Glass Windshield instead of the Soft Plastic , because of the Hot summer day's , the soft plastic would be harder to see out of !

Live Well & Locking Storage Seat - I used a full length SS piano hinge, instead of just two smaller SS hinges to mount the Starboard seat's !
