Hey Simon ..... what is the actual project - It looks pretty full on!

it was a open qunitrex explorer 385 and we are making it in to like a explorer trophy or hornet trophy but the one thing i have wanted is more storage area and once we do the cabinets in the seat it will be more user friendly and have a bit more space up the front to stand also im putting another seat mount in the middle of the boat so when im river fishing i can sit there to watch my line then we are put a area under the floor to put the oars and life jacket it will be easy accesable but better in the room sense so yeah . and i will then also have it painted and yeah will look a million dollars only thing is i wont have a mondy nuster sticker anymore damm and yeah i been looking at doing it for a will so yeah excited

STRUTH SIMON!
You have been busy, It doesn't look anything like it did at Mondy

CRIKEY! It looks like a new boat .

Great to have the opportunity to build what you want .

Have we got a name yet? Doh! just read previous post Barra Explorer.

So it is the old Explorer then? Holy Crap
