Progress on the boat bed!

Did a bit more on the boat bed for Jackson this weekend. Nearly ready for a sand and a paint!

Jackson's Birthday Boat Bed!

Jackson's birthday is on the 16th Dec... He'll be 2yo and because I'm such a great dad, I'm going to make him a super cool boat bed. I started today in my workshop and after about 4hrs, this is the progress. I'll upload more photos as I get further along.

The Front section of the boat will come to a point and will be an area to store toys. On the headboard I'll make a Yamaha Motor (and bookcase/light)



It's all braced and square/level. Just need the glue to dry now. The next fiddly bit is to create the front part as a removable section.


This is the bed tray that the foam mattress sits on. This drops in the top of it...

Jacks new wetsuit. Now he's ready for the summer fun at the lakes.

Jackson is really proud of his new Spongebob wetsuit. He wore it all day today around the farm and even had his midday sleep in it. Looking forward to getting him to the lake for a swim!

The new auxillary!

Finally sorted the auxiliary on the boat. It's a little 4hp Yamaha 4 stroke. Now we can start going a little further out and catch some real fish... We'll also use this for some trout trolling on the back country lakes...
