Well as posted Here and documented throughout this thread I have finally finished the Sportspal canoe project.  It started November 11th of 2023 when I bought it off Facebook for really, really cheap. I started work and quickly had it stripped and ready for paint,,,,,thennnn.
 

My Wife was diagnosed with Cancer and our priorities changed, immensely! She has undergone several surgeries and six chemotherapy rounds and is now in remission, thank you very much! This is the first post or mention of this here and not looking for this to turn into “the conversation” but just as a reason on why it has taken me a year to get this done.

I thank you all and appreciate your sympathies and concern and only ask for Prayers if you can.

 

Anyway, here it is and tomorrow is the maiden voyage and we’re looking forward to an exciting Fall fishing season.


Wish me luck 😆

That looks awesome!

 

And I'm so happy to hear your wife is in remission. Great news!

Upgraded from my 07 Stratos 176XT to this 25' Vexus AVX 1980 with a 25' Zuke Stealth, and Garmin electronics... Got a 12 Ultra 2 at the console, and will be adding 2 10 Ultras that have been sitting in their box for about a year on the bow attached to a BBT hood offset mount. Took it out yesterday for the first time after sitting in my garage for a month. What a massive upgrade in size and storage. The knew v2 front decks are massive, there is so much space at the very front of the deck. We had no problem moving around with three people. Sucks I couldnt do a full send on the motor because of the break in period. Over all we're happy with it.

This is my 1986 Stratos 179V. It is powered by a Mariner 150 Magnum. It is a two owner boat (before me). Both prior owners kept it in the garage and took very good care of it. It is the cleanest 38 year old boat I have ever seen. I love it!

Love the lines of those boats, and the sound of that class engine!
