Excuse my ignorance, but we saw the rednecks crawl out of the woods to wait by the highway for their favorite NASCAR drivers to come by. As we were leaving the PA Welcome Center I mentioned how funny it would be if we got behind these guys, just then, as we were getting back on the highway... the trucks came. Awesome... now we could wave at all of the rednecks waiting along the road!
Port side cockpit sole epoxyied in place. Underneath this sole, along with foam flotation, is a 1 1/4" diameter PVC pipe providing an electrical conduit between the pilot house aft dinette seat and the seat against the transom. I may locate the house battery and battery charger under the dinette seat to reduce weight in the aft end.
I had no 9mm Okoume plywood left in sheets large enough for the cockpit soles. I wasn't about to travel 7 hours round trip to Houston to purchase same, so I locally purchased two sheets of 3/8" Aquatek marine plywood. This is a Luan based wood manufactured to the less stringent specification 6566 versus BS1088 for the Joubert plywood I have been using.
Advantages of Aquatek compared to Okoume are less expensive, more rot resistant and better rigidity in a flat application. Disadvantages are greater weight, harder to mold and more splinters. Out came the tweezers and gloves after getting impaled from across the grain cuts. Especially when using a jig saw, consider running the saw on the less noticeable side of the Aquatek panel or using masking tape on the cut line. I have had splintering bad enough to require fairing compound to correct the tear out. Of course a higher tooth count blade would help. After this experience, I now very much appreciate how cleanly Okoume plywood cuts.
One of the Aquatek sheets will be used for the removable center cockpit area. Since the outer soles taper as they approach the transom, I was able to get both soles out of one 4X8 sheet even though at their widest points the soles each exceeded 24". In effect I cut the plywood sheet on the diagonal along the 8' dimension.
I peeped this truck in the parking lot of a strip mall in Creston, BC.
It's a friggin shotgun case, strapped onto an ATV, strapped onto a pick up truck.
The only thing that would have made it more redneck, was if a case of budwiser was strapped onto the shotgun case, and the pick up truck was strapped onto another pickup truck (something like a max bed size ford 350 or something.)
hey, it could happen.
It's a Redneck Wind Chime...also a Father's Day gift for my bubba father-in-law :) I think he'll like it

My Canadian neighbor emulates stereotypical southern traditions of the redneck variety. When my brother-in-law saw this sign outside my neighbor's house he asked me to take his picture. Even little buddy seemed to catch the red spirit.
Jef Foxworthy please forgive me for using your famous words: Might be a Redneck.
