wow they have them cut thin, i had to leave mine taller to get the minimun dept for t-750,, now i think im going to be heavy so i might re shape the deck/cockpit,, but im going to finnish it as is, :? then possibly put a bigger motor on it, :idea: , can i drag race a 14' boat :?: :idea: this hull is thick,,.

i layed a peice of nida core in the bow
Image
covered it in glass, let it harden
Image

then flipped it to get a convex shape.

Image

Image
dash is going to be round,, im not going to use the pointy peice i dont think, its the bow ,, just needed to copy the shape for the dash..

i need new steering before i close in the bow,, im thinking of leaving the peice above the dash un attached and using straps to hold it on, so i can access behind the dash for rigging/service etc.... was also going to leave access to under the bow, to add weight if needed.. move battery around etc ... 10,000 rpm tach need to figure out how to hook it up to yamaha wiring, hot foot is no good need one for yamaha... :D im very happy with the way this looks,, thought it would be way worse for sure :lol:
