It doesn't look like much has gone on but there has been some decent progress. The stringer has been bonded and glassed in, and the floor is all cut, fitted, and epoxied ready to be put in the first thing of next week. Hopefully by the end of next week it will really start looking like a boat again.

Here's a couple of pictures to look at since it has been pretty quiet lately lol ...

Looks like some serious core material to the left :lol:

LOL you haven't heard of it???? Its the new and improved 2x3 Heavy duty hardwood core.I wanted to save money by not putting in a speedo so I thought hell, if I make the boat heavy enough I'll put a calender in its place instead ----- 0 to 60 in 3 days!!

Thanks guys! Got a little bit more done so far. Floor has been all glued and is now all glassed in. Ready to cut my knees and bulkhead and get those in. Can really start to see it coming together now.

Lol I'm just looking forward to the light at the end of the tunnel and get it back on the trailer to start using it. I must admit though, the epoxy is way better to use and gives a much cleaner finish versus the polyester or vinylester resin.

Looking good Mike, you'll have a boat in the water this Spring.
I'm one step closer, got heat installed in the shop last weekend. It's not boat work but it's a start.
