Man I could not find this thread for a while!!! Thanks for all the info guys. I did check out their site and it was certainly interesting ot say the leaste. I was just dumbfounded that it was all concept stuff. However I guess now I understand. So boat #1 is just around the corner? I can not waite to see it. My girlfriend was actually the first to see it and said she wanted one . I was like what the heck are you talking about LOL

Thanks very one. The Dragon is coming along fine. On the site if you go to NEWS you can see hull, factory and other stuff. The deck is coming along and we are looking at Thanksgiving to go for a ride. Next week or so I will post the real photo STOPPED, not in plurrr form. It is going to be very special it truly will be the performance boat you were promised. Any questions or if anyone is in the area you are more than welcome to see everything live. Thanks again, Craig Barrie

Is this the real Craig Barrie?

WOW another builder on the board KICK AZZ!!!!! I am really looking forward to the pictures of the "concept" boat.

I noticed that you are using epoxy vs. polyester or Vinalester resin. Do you care to elaborate as to why Epoxy over Vinallester? As I understand it Vinallester has become the new accepted standard for boat construction do to its flexability, cost, and ability to repel water penetration. Is the Epoxy that much better that the cost is worth it? I did all the repairs on my boat with Epoxy as I was told it would bond better to my older parts, but that was small stuff like filling in windows, and I know how expensive that got.
