Well, Its funny how this boat stuff goes..... I may be young but, I have learned little through the years... Some of the best boating times/stories don't revolve around whether you have the latest & greatest 100 foot cigarette that has more colors on it than a rainbow and can go 200mph.... Its about the genuine people you meet along the way!! While my buddy Patryk, aka ItsPeanut, has not been raised on boating like myself, He has truly been bitten by the bug and its in his blood. He is one of my best friends and I appreciate the friendship. This brings the project progress up to about Dec 10th 2009 when I get a phone call saying, "Hey, I am coming up to work on the boat! We are not partying when I come up a**hole! Lets get some stuff done!!" The dude leaves FLA in December to work on a boat in snowy cold Wisconsin..... Got a love it!! Well, I picked him up Thursday night at the airport and we started working Friday morning bonding in the last 2 stringers...

Once the stingers were braced in we used the "West Systems" sticks to create fillets between the stringer and the hull..
