Two Bears
Boat "Mods" and Current Condition
I hollowed out the foam from under the V berth. I entered froml the side first, and found that it was almost impossible to work in there, so I then entered from the top. Glad I did both. Used Tempress hatches. The first set were "slam" catchs, and due to the very slight curved of the wall, they would not stay closed. So they ended up on top, and "cam" latches on the vertical sides.

Tractor seat box. Seat slides forward to lower back flat. I'm 6' & 200 lbs & have always had trouble getting legs under wheel. This is no different, but much more comfortable for extended periods.

$Two sets of bumpers. The Red bumpers balls, one behind Penny\'s leg, are on a short fixed tether and have snaps that go to cleats. Good for many docks. The green longer bumpers are on a longer line and need to be tied to fit where needed. Some docks are too high or two low and sometimes you raft to a larger boat.$

$Garmin 740 Chart plotter w/ Radar in "Overlay" mode. The radar is in \"Overlay\" mode and shows as orange on the screen. Inter-coastal waterway Florida entering the St John River. We found the radar could often pick up navigation buoys before our eye could find them. Very confidence building in strange waters.$

Traveling some interesting roads
We love the Electric over hydraulic brakes which allow you to reach down and apply trailer brakes without applying truck brakes. Also, you can adjust the amount of break action from hard stop = skidding & smoking tires to just a bit of bite.

Tractor Seat Box. Seat was about $100 at local tractor store.

Helm Seat turned to aisle is used for extra seating when guests visit for Dock Tails.
Foot support is an RV step which is normally allows stepping from swim step.
