I'll post a new picture once the custom half tower and enclosure are installed.
She's about 3/4 restored/updated.

Hi Fishon,
I have the same old top that you had, I am looking into getting exactly what you have. What did that run you if you don't mind me asking? Top looks great also! I'm jealous lol.

$5400 with full enclosures, deck light, all-around light, antenna/radar plates, six rod holders (including two SKA style), wiring labor and labor to move antennas and patch or put plates over old holes. Tops -N-Towers in Seabrook,Texas is number one in Texas for building custom tops.

Hope the wife doesn't see what I paid.

John,

Boat looks great. Did you ever make it to Port A and if so how did you do? I've been there for the last four weekends but had to run the bay boat because I hadn't got the Grady back yet. Let me know when you will be back down that way. We will be fishing with my uncle all summer who runs a 22' Seafarer named Honcho. Hope to see you out there. We will be fishing the outboard tournament as well as a few others.

Yes, I moved south to Nassau Bay so Galveston is where I fish out of mainly. However, I have tons of hours offshore out of Freeport and Port Aransas. We fish year around in the bay and offshore. The Reds and Specks are running the bays heavy right now.
