Foam in the front sponsons glued in and shaped. Hopefully glue the tops of the sponsons this week and then put on another coat of West Systems 207

Did some work on it this weekend with some filler on the brass inserts, also put a fillet around the stuffing tube, and have the skins trimmed up and ready to glue on tonight.

Finally I glued the decks on. Next I will put some fillets in different areas and seal the remainder of the boat along with finishing the radiobox. Should hopefully have it ready to go off to paint in a few weeks.

Just ordered the GSX315 v2 FE and super excited to build. Where do you guys get those metal pieces to keep everything straight? Or what are they called so I can order online.

Awesome glad you got one ordered. You should be able to goto most hardware stores and get aluminum angle. I got mine at Menards, but I have seen them at Home Depot, Lowe’s, tractor supply, Rural King. Aluminum Angle<~~~click for link

Brad,

We are waiting to see if the extra two inches is going
to be better handling or faster than the 31” boat.
I have a couple of new bullets to try on that one.

Thanks,

Mark

Brad,

That should be competitive like your
current one. I will send you a few more
wheels this weekend.

Brad,

A couple more updated wheels from the
“Maglinger Sport 20 collection” are on the way.
Hopefully this will give you a good idea on the
New Boat set up.

Enjoy The Weekend,

Mark
