Nice work. Was this boat originally named the Mischief?
Proud Mary, how is the renovation going? I enjoy the pictures. I have a Prairie 29 (hull # 7) and the windows are very crazed and need replacing. I notice that you replaced the windows. Can you tell me where you got them and the material that was used?

Two comments: the first I noticed that you put your rudder zincs in the middle of the rudder, right in propwash, you "may" get some vibration in the helm/boat/rudder. I did. I put the anode(s) on the bottom edge.
The second is the city water intake is very close to the waterline, make sure the interior hoses are seriously bulletproof, it could fail and flood you...
Otherwise it looks really good, you are doing great work and very energetic!

I removed the rotted boards from the head and cut out two new boards. It was miserable sanding the hull down to the bilge prepping for fiberglass and epoxy.
Today was thru-hull installation day. I installed the grated engine intake, the grated HVAC intake, the toilet intake and the waste water thru-hull even though it will probably never be used.
