Good morning ladies and gentlemen, I'm Mike. BBLBTX stands for Big Boat Little Budget in Texas. I recently found a custom built wooden mathews that I'm working out and look forward to hearing from everyone. It my first go boat (powered) as I've always owned and still currently own a couple of blow boats (sail). These 8v71s on here are already giving me a run for my money, let's see how this all ends up. 🤣

Welcome. Look forward to some Tejas reports. Have fun with the project.
I have a couple of old shovelhead Harleys that are the same way.

But they are great for keeping the sun off of you. and I know you will enjoy that upper helm
I plan to make a teakwood and fiberglass foldable top for the upper and sundeck for super hot and rainy days. I'll post as I go. Really cool boat so far and have learned a ton of history about it.
Nice!
