An awesome job . . . mucho skills at work there.

The thing that worries me is the abundance of wood and the inherent longevity issues associated with a wood/FRP structure. If it is trailered and kept dry, it should last.

I would just love to be able to lay down the glitter paint like that. I wonder how much it weighs with all the wood ...

Wood typically weighs less than fiberglass. If you want to see some really nice wooden boat builds go to glen-l.com
