Wife Has Overruled

Originally, I was going to do a complete custom furniture job in order to save some money and make a wild-looking pontoon boat.


My wife has decided against that.


Here is what I will be doing now from pontoonstuff.com.

Will update soon when I finish getting my rails painted and put back on!

The Deck is Finished!!!

I was able to convince my buddy to help me carry my new marine lumber down to my pontoon frame this weekend.


We spent all day placing the rail foam tape, laying out the wood, measuring, clamping, drilling, and bolting.







Once the wood work was complete, we laid out the vinyl flooring, leaving some extra all around.

We clamped in the middle and pulled one half back, spread the deck glue, and rolled the floor covering back over, smoothing with a push broom.

We repeated the process with the other half of the floor covering.














If you're curious, I used a great decking kit from pontoonstuff.com shown below.

Rail Work

The weather has been nice, so it's time to get this done!

I set all my rails in my driveway and borrowed my friend's pressure washer to clean the rails really good before painting.

An added benefit to this was that the paint was so old, the power washer blew off much of the old paint!


 
Another added bonus was I decided just for the heck of it to see if the old teak table would look better from pressure washing.

Well, it does!

I am going to buy some teak oil to make it really nice soon.
