Thanks guys, I ended up going with marine TeX epoxy for the repair.It turns out the laminate was only 1/4 inch thick and I grounded through a...
Hey PAR thanks for the response. You were correct that its near a lift strake, would you still grind 3 inches even though that will take me over...
I don't think there would be any way to clamp it, its about 5-6 inches long running parallel to one the trailer bunks.
I searched the forum and saw that there were already several other similar threads, however I wanted to post pictures of the crack to give a...
I looked him up, looks like he hasn't been on here in awhile. His aluminum rib does sound like an interesting concept.
I've been surfing the web looking for companies that make a 12-14 ft aluminum jet boat. So far the only one I've found is a company called Motion...
Just because someone sells their old boat doesn't mean its a failed project. People like to upgrade and move on to bigger and better things....

I appreciate the response and like I've said I'm still in the brainstorming stage. Like you pointed out about the rocker it would be ideal if I...
Canoe design I'm trying to select a canoe for this project and would love it if anyone who is an expert on boat hull design would give advice....

This guy is right, the motor is from the 90s I would guess mid 90s but can't give an exact year.
Will do, I was just seeing if someone on here happened to know.
I was wondering if someone happens to know approximatly what the engine and jet drive from the old kawasaki 300cc or 440cc jet ski weights? ( or...
Yeah except fiberglass hauls and rocky rivers don't go well together. I've always wondered why no one has made an aluminum hulled jet ski, I guess...
