The Marketplace Forums can be useful for members who know one another well from forum discussions and offline communications and wish to post boatbuilding tools, drafting tools, molds and tooling, and other professional equipment for sale or trade. However, caution and good judgement should always be used. Especially when considering any business with anyone not already well known to you and trusted, due diligence must be used to confirm details and identity and be sure the transaction is safe before any money or property changes hands. Always use good judgement and perform due dilligence and follow these guidelines.

    I believe it. Other hulls aren't as unique, and versatile. This is an atractive boat.

    It is. An old friend of mine Designed it. The deck is easy but the hull, that's a beast vs. a V hull.

    If your fast, you can skin it in 6 hours, just the hull. That would be hand laying, chopper gun, much less. Quality with a chopper, much less. The deck is a piece of cake.

    one roll of mat, one roll of 1708, one drum of resin, one gallon of MEKP, 10 gallons of gel, for a single color. One box of balsa. That will build you a bare hull, with a solid color. If you want more colors the price goes up. Yellow is about $100.00 per gallon, others are a little less, and then there is custom blending your own colors.

    Your not the only one that would like these. A builder in Havasu wants them as well.

    After further review of the Paker 300 rules, this boat can also be raced.

    No not yet. The reason for building a closed deck was to be able to race the boat. After looking at the rules for the Parker 300 and other APBA Mod VP racing, I won't need a closed bow. I can race the open bow, less all of the comforts of home. I still plan on doing it, just not at the moment.

    Keep me in mind, how about just a hull and I will cut and wack a 17' deck.
