Love your videos homie! 💯

[@BredForBass]

Thanks brotha appreciate that!

[@richardwright6572]

the screws that mount the frame to the deck of the boat and the screws that screw down to the frame

[@BredForBass]

I didn’t mount the frame to the boat it just fits in their snug used 2” self tapping stainless screws to attach wood deck to frame

[@BredForBass]

Sorry for such a long video I didn’t expect it to be so long.The next ones will definitely be shorter.

[@edwinpliett488]

I'm not uderstanding how you did the center support between the hatches. Did you use 3 pieces of 1 1/2" angle? and are they notched to set on the front and rear frame?

[@BredForBass]

No they are not notched they are riveted underneath the front and back piece running left and right does that make sense?

[@edwinpliett488]

@@BredForBass yes. Thanks.

[@willbillyheaven]

Where did you get your carpet and how well does it match what was in the boat?

[@BredForBass]

Boatcarpetbuys.com it’s the 16 Oz midnight star color. It’s exact match just make sure you face the carpet the right direction or it will look a little darker.If you look at my boat now you could never tell I added that piece in it looks factory!

[@richardwright6572]

what type of s.s. screws did you use are they for wood or metal

[@BredForBass]

Metal sorry for late response!

[@chriscarter5541]

Where did you get the carpet?

[@BredForBass]

Boatcarpetbuys.com it’s the 16oz midnight start color

[@cencalclassicxl3875]

I don't see where you posted any of the measurements.

[@bawaahahmath1815]

what about the carpet?

[@BredForBass]

Is 16 oz midnight star grey from boatcarpetbuys.com

[@timmcmurray3867]

Did you mount the casting deck to the boat and how?

[@musthate885]

How did you get the door off (holds the bow light)?
