A failed project is one that never gets done, the fact that you’re taking the step to knock it out of the park, means it will be a very successful project!

The older you get the more you start to realize that there is someone out there that does what you are trying to do, day in and day out and can probably do it 10x better and faster. I did all my own stuff in my 20s and 30s. Now I'm 45 and would rather just pay the professional to do it right the first time. Sometimes that burden weighs heavier than the work load and you have to off load it. You did the right thing.

Listen to Riley. Very very good advice. "What ever works more better".

You made the right choice my guy, sometimes in life it’s okay to ask for help, even tho it’s not help because you are paying for it, but we cannot do it all by ourselves

Looking forward to seeing this girl ready for next season. Glad you decided to take a little off your plate before getting burnt out

bigger sliding door, with a "matching" window in the bulkhead, so when the door's open, you can still see out the window.

As someone who knows nothing about crabbing and does not even own a boat, I think all your plans are great.
