did you put the boxes in for buoyancy or just added storage space, either way it looks reel good.

Never thought of buoyancy...lol
No, they are for rear anchor and rode storage...as well ropes and acc's for the dinghy, tubing & water skiing.
Yes water skiing!!
My 18 yr. old son and his buddy like to ski behind the old girl.

i like the swim platform even more now that I see it close up.
Sometimes I wish I was a craftsman instead of a salesman.
Sales has its financial rewards, but nothing that compares to having the ability to design, fabricate, install and repair with your own hands.
Great job!!!
Pride of ownership shows strong on your vessel.
