I've just about finished priming the inside, and am painting the rub and spray rails. Two pics are at the below link. Sorry for the shadows. I hope it floats.

I knew you'd zip right through it! Did you pick up the webbing spray yet?

Is that Bimini top that is leaning against the back wall of your garage (in the picture) slated for your GF16?

Thanks for the compliment. The boat is DONE!!!! and I'll get pictures up tonight or tomorrow. I hope to splash it tomorrow a.m. if the weather holds up. Yes, I like the way I have the front deck. I made a couple of modifications. First, I tilted the front just deck to keep water from standing. Not that I was sure it would, but I didn't want it to be an issue. I also added three extra 1x2's on the bottom side (epoxy glued) to reinforce it a bit (I'm a big guy). Since I'm not particularly careful with how I toss an anchor, I added a layer of 4 oz cloth. It seems EXTREMELY solid. My only regret is that I didn't create some sort of anchor locker (I believe Mango did so on his GF16).

Jason:
The webbing came out fantastic! It seems to be relatively rugged, and dried quickly. I can't scratch it off with a finger nail. It was cheap to do, so I can always add more later. The boat is DONE and the paint seems to be -- finally! -- cured. If the weather holds up tomorrow, I hope to have a splash!
Thanks for all your help and advice.
