Funny thing is this boat has a blue gelcoat from the original manufacturer I thought it was paint until I started sanding

Started glassing in the Coosa board floor and ran out of resin so decided to paint the boat. This is one coat of battleship gray. Have a second coat on it but was too dark. Working on a skulling oar now. Need to figure out how and where to install the the oar hole. Bought some PVC pipe parts...

Requested to join and didn’t hear back

I would say I have “transitioned” instead of retired. I still get excited about going the next day and don’t miss many hunts but I don’t have to shoot. We layout hunt most of the time and I just drive the big boat for my son and son in law. I try to explain to them that the shooting is not...

it was 23 with a stiff North wind Saturday morning here in N. Bama I had to punt on my daily 6am walk and couldn't do anything on the new boat. I would move it into the shop but at 18' it would be tight. Got this photo from a friend of the northern lights showing on Lake Guntersville last...

I'm not 100% on the leaving the center cavity open or sealing it off. Most likely it will be a game time decision.

I know this might open a can of worms and dont want to get off topic but this was why I went with vinyl ester on the Broadbill and am using my over ordered material on this boat: (cost vs water absorption vs bonding vs strength) 1. Polyester Resin • Advantages: o Lowest cost – most affordable...

Thanks for the inputs. I have only reworked a boat one time but this boat seems to have a REALLY thick fiberglass hull. It is 1/4" +/- thick in places, way thicker than the Broadbill, so I don't think it needs structural support in the strake cavities. I completely get the fill to eliminate...
