Wow- great stuff - please keep posting pics. Reminds me of when I purchased a derelict boat that had been on a lift for 15 years - had no engines, no cockpit, no interior, and had plants growing out of the cockpit floor ..... but it was 43 feet deep vee kevlar with arnesons. BTW: wish I had a nice shop like that to make a big mess in - outstanding!

Thanks for the nice comments. It really does give me some drive to keep pushing forward. Some times I don't want to post the pics just because I don't want negative feedback to discourage me, but so far the feedback has been great and I have taken a lot of the ideas and used them or discussed them for the build.

Windscreen almost done....cockpit is next...

Some more progress. Dash plug is almost done, windscreen is 99% done, new hatch plug getting close. The amount of time to make this stuff is epic. Bruce Jones is amazing.

Wow, brings back memories. It's easy to go crazy on these things once you start down the path.

Going to be one of the nicest 36s (only up there with Brians, which I think Bruce did that one too? the silver one.) Very cool, will be fun to go boating with you up on the lake when you're done.

Yes Bruce did Brian's too. He is basically an artist. I have pretty much given him free reign to do what he wants. I show him some stuff I like, some stuff I hate and then let him do his thing. I can't take credit for any of the design. That is all Bruce. I am really excited to see how the hatch turns out. I can see it in my head but we are looking at it upside down and backwards in the mold. It should be pretty unique with the scoop intakes on each side a sun pad in the middle and an inverted vent at the end of the scoops. We sort of stole some ideas from other boats and then turned them into this creation. Again I helped with the big picture but this is all on Bruce for what is being done. I can't even draw stick people.

It should turn out well. We just keep at it and changing and tweaking if it doesn't make sense. It's not perfect or exactly what intended but it should work well once its all done.

Thanks for all of the feedback it is greatly appreciated.


And I can't wait to go boating. I actually might take the fuel caps and put "401K" on one and "IRA" on the other. Hoping to burn some serious amounts of fuel.

That silver one is absolutely beautiful! Love that thing.
