I finally posted some pics of some of the work that has been done, it's still a work in progress. I have about 30 projects left on my list. The last row of page 4 is of the bridge under demolition and the second row of page 5 are the finished product. Sorry about the tree debris on deck.
What a difference from the early pics!
Knock on wood....she runs better than see looks.

Thanks for all your kind words. Yes, Nancy she is on the Mohawk River at a marina in Albany County. Michael, you are welcome anytime for a ride on the mighty Mohawk. It's not like the drinking quality of water that you are used to though. Aaron, thanks I like the way the TV came out too. The 32" flat screen fits perfectly.

We just got home from a overnight stay on her, best sleep I had all week.
Looking at the calendar, 2 weeks to haul out. :(

Yeh, thanks. Next spring. :D

I got a Philips 32" which fit perfectly on the shelf over the dinette. Enough room for a PS3 next to it for blu-rays, dvds, and games. Also its good for storing music or other media.

Mike, That sure was funny what Jeff said about the bridge pics. I quess from the angle of the picture, it could look like a barge. No offense taken. That was the first time I thought that I got in over my head. Believe me, looking at it in real life it looked 10x worse. Thanks to input from members on this site, I came up with a good game plan and put it in motion. Not as bad as it first seemed.
Haven't heard from Jeff lately? R u out there Jeff?
