We are back from our trip to Seattle and Port Townsend.  We brought home stainless rub rails, and a few odds and ends, but not much.  We got one windshield in, and will get the second one in soon, we hope.  We took the boat in to Anchor Marine in E. Missoula, to have the new Evinrude 60 HP motor installed.  There seems to always be a hitch in installing anything, and this one was no exception.  It seems that the steering arm on the port side didn't line up with the pipe we had made for it.  So it was time for modifications!  As you can see in the picture, we had to cut out the PVC pipe and move the space closer to the stern.  Richard will have to make a box to fit around the steering arm.  This was not a terrible problem, but a screw up none the less. 
While we were waiting for the motor installation, we drove up to Salmon Lake to see if

that would be a good launching place.  We think it will work, and it is closer than Flathead Lake, so we may launch there.  So we wait for the second windshield and the steering arm repair.  Oh yes, we also are having our trusty welder lengthen the part of the trailer that has the rubber bumpers which come in contact with the front of the boat.  The bumpers don't quite reach the bow.
In the meantime, we are installing the stainless rub rails, more cleats for bumpers, and are figuring out where to put the cabin reading lights.  So even though we are close to being done, we are not quite there yet.  The pictures today are of the motor and the new rub rails,(which really dress up the boat)  We also installed the stainless rub rails on the wooden rub strip towards the stern, although I didn't get a picture of it in place.  The metal should protect that wood, which doesn't have fiberglass cloth on it.
Hopefully the next posting will be of the launching.  We will see.
