Ribs are bedded and the glass is cut. I just need to find time to glass it in.

Ribs are glassed in. Bulk heads are cut and I have got most of the floor cut and sealed on the bottom for now. The front section is going to have to be trimmed once I get the gas tank. I also put down some putty in the cabin area to smooth out the floor some.

You do nice neat work. You piqued my curiosity. What is the objective of the upward facing flanges/tabs of glass on the ribs?

thanks. My original plan was to not screw any of the floor down. So... I made the flanges to have more surface area for the resin or glass or cabosil to stick to. At this point it will get screws also. I would hate for the floor to come loose.

I think that might be my old boat? The last time I saw it , it was for sale at Gregory's in port Clinton.

Lol.. That's her! I removed all those decals.. I wonder if sun fading made them noticeable again? I worked for days buffing so you couldn't see them.... I had the boat for several years and when I sold it you still couldn't see them... Anyway it did a great job here on Erie for its size.

I actually bought the boat when I lived in gallon.. Ha. Small world.

Wow.. Still looks really really nice. It had a red Seahawk trailer when I owned it. They guy I bought the boat from lived in gallon also. I can pm you his name if you want it? I just hate to put it on an open forum. It had a 468 in it , that he said had around 500hp. Which seemed about right because it would run a solid 65. He had Valves on the exhaust that he could shut some of the water flow off to make it louder.. Lol. That's what the burn marks were from on the inside of the transom. He forgot to open them up and the got to hot ..crazy! Those and the decals where the first thing in the trash.i was told the guy I sold it to over filled the oil and ruined the motor?. We had a 24' checkmate pryer to that boat and what an unbelievable difference.
