Re: hull extension in progress with picks

last sunday i got a work crew and we cleaned the shop

it was a lot messyer than that.........this pic was taken a few monthe ago.....right after the float.

2 dump runs.....2 tool runs.....(take the tools to my whse) and a final load the boat full......

heh heh heh when we finally hosed the bay down.....there was some over spray on the floor....(gellcoat) i would have grinded it off.....but it made for a good non slip on the cement floor

here she is at her new temp home

people were givin me looks and thumbs up when i was moving it

i gotta admit....im goin nuts not being able to work on it.....kinda like with drawals !

Look amazing oops. She looks eager to get back in the water.

I know this is not the first time I have seen the boat with the cap on it, but man OOPS, it looks so cool setting there on the stretched trailer.

It looks like something I would do in “photoshop” just for fun, but this one is real.

thanks kandil......lotta work and im finally over the re gellcoat...

i will do a compleate gellcoat scratch and repair post....very detailed......i ve got a bayliner that i want to fix....its got some common dings that will be great for a tutorial..........

the deck of the boat is 1/2 inch standard ext grade ply.......i had pt ready to go in....but my framers cut it all up for the stringers..... about 400 bucks worth of dryed pt ply.

the deck is glassed with a total of 11 oz of matt and cloth....all the main areas of seating are reinforced with another 1/2 inch of ply as a backing plate. then it was gellcoated......the deck is very solid under foot.

now.......if i could only get a shop to finish the job.....

cheers
