I don't want a flat bottom, or atleast a flat bow. I've had boats like that before and the pounding even in a very light chop gets to me. I want...
The Hobo does have a lot of windage, but so do the designs you suggested, especially the WaterVan. The Westcoast of Florida is a great and varied...
The Hobo is gone. She sold in less then 24 hours. I know some of you think I am crazy, but the following these have was front and center. I got...
Thanks. So I kind of want to duplicate something like the Hobo, but a little bigger. I'm actually taking inspiration from the C-Dory 22. Looking...
Well I figured after some poking around that it would likely be easier and cheaper to just build a new hull again. I've done it before a few times...
Well I decided to officially call it. I put it up for sale and got several offers within the first 3 minutes. Maybe I should have asked for more,...
I am. I actually got outbid on 2 of them. The ones you see for 5k still need restoration, or it's someone who doesn't know what they have because...
Well, no need to be rude about it. Obvious, no, because I'm not afraid of work, and the boat would be worth double what I would have into it....
After poking around with trying to lift it off and support it, I determined it would be best to keep it on the trailer. The only solid parts are...
Yes on the question of a sole, but I'll circle back to that in a minute. So let me say this, yes there is maybe 1/8" of fiberglass at most on...
I understand and appreciate it. Believe me when I tell you I am in this with eyes wide open. You've suggested the GT23 before, and I was...
I'm not sure if the core just runs between the runners, or all the way to the sides. The sides themselves are not cored from what I can see. The...
From the start the plan was to get it in the warehouse and figure out if it is what I want or needed. I'm not far into it money wise yet.
That is what's messing with my head. I've built 4 boats already so I have the skills to build or repair what I choose. I also know for the same...
I'm not gonna lie guys, I'm more and more leaning on passing the project to the next guy. I'm going to try a few more things and then make my...
Well, there's not much point in destructive testing when it's all already destroyed, lol. Seriously, there is not one bit of wood or core that is...
Time to start planning my next moves. [ATTACH]
Well, good news and bad. Good news is I found a small warehouse to work on the boat. So I don't have to wait until late spring. It's about 12x30,...
I have multiple projects in mind, but it will be used to core a small hull extension on a displacement speed hull. The guys I've spoken to have...
It's comparable to what's already on the market, and adhesion isn't an issue. I'm just looking for guys who have actually used it to give...
