Atleast they kept the cover on to keep any dust out of the cockpit.

-1500 Grit. Nice.

As for the original question- I bought a Progression. Blueprinted out of the mold. Read it on the website. Must be true.

Common that is somebody's great idea of displaying their beautiful Donzi. Look at the great pedestal to display the bottom and the juxtaposition of the water and the mountain in the back ground. Now that is a stable ride.

do you know what "SIR GlassDave" use to fill in low spots and did you paint or gel coat it. Both times I did it I used P77 and gel coated the bottom. First time I used Duratec and over the years it yellowed the white gel and the second time I used styrene and came out super white

I did the best I could on my pantera. I built a rotisserie and filled all the gouges, blocked out the flat areas and sharpened up the strakes some.

After I was satisfied, I gelcoated the bottom.

Time will tell if the boat rides crispy and straight. I sure hope so.

Some pics:

Working on your back sanding and the dust falling everywhere.. omg I`d rather poke myself in the eye repeatedly.

I had the strakes cut back and had the entire bottom redone eliminating a hook in the process.
