Hello all -

Heading into the home stretch of the build, and working on finishing touches. I had intended on using Russ's covers and sills, but obviously hard to do when he's not with us any longer.

I'm wondering if anyone has either of them that they either A) Didn't/don't intend on using? B) Haven't installed yet? C) Would be willing to get detailed measurements from so I can try to manufacture my own?

Any and all help appreciated!

Rian

Hello, I have both and can trace them out for you to be used as templates.

Eddie - If you can make a PDF of the drawings or somehow copy them easily without having to manually trace them twice I would happily take a copy as well. I had talked to Russ several times about his and he was going to have a batch made in the spring with a friend who did the engraving for him. After his passing I figured I'd just copy the FFR sills and have them made a bit thicker and have a couple places in mind that can do the Daytona logo, but would be interesting to see how Russ' design was different. If I am able to get them into a CAD file will share it with all along with wherever I find that can engrave them.

Rian - I have a set of the pontoon covers but am planning on using them, I will trace them out for you. Might take me a week or so. If I can get them into a CAD file I will.

Either would be greatly appreciated!

CAD files of either or both would be amazing....
