Still change'n stuff, But here is tha skinny on what we are doin,

Took the dims from my test boat spoons ( It hit 60 its third time out) and a set of JD's WOF plans and come up a new design 29" long.

Pic of the test boat is in tha gallery, it had epoxy glass over foam spoons and CF sides from Mike P.

Excellent progress Mark, If our weather holds, I might get a chance to splash this pup before the snow flies

Well maybe, mother nature can be cranky at times :lol:

Do have one question, requires one cut and sand a gentle breakover to tha ride surface, 11 forward from the rear,

See pic:

 

[MarkScott]

Ok, just saw this update and pic...

You want that line to be straight or curved??? Either way, I can make it happen... If straight, a gentle slope will be placed on it..

Mark..

Got a suprize for my 3000th post

But to do this I have to quit typing on this darn box and get something built, I will be checking PMs till tha sponsons ship, then Im going into build mode till its done.

In the interim I am letting a friend "often called my evil twin" fill in for me, direct any question or PMs to him and he will forward them to me,

Take it Maverick
