Baby got back

That's the smile of a man with the hard parts behind him. The electrical works and fits perfectly, and after some effort the turtledeck is ready to install. But first, time to get rid of the FOD.

Boom tube carpeted and  glued in place.

Rivet every other hole...

while Jim starts on the pylon. 

Even with Jim's expert advice, there was still a gap at the transom/turtledeck fit. I wish PA would not cut the turtledeck mold so aggressively,  but instead allow extra to be cut after fitting. Even without the boom tube the turtledeck was cut too high to cover the hull lip at the transom. Frustrating. Hope I can cover it up with the vinyl trim.

But eventually, it all came together.
