Well I dropped it in the water the other day to swap trailers. Unfortunatly my photo shop is not on this computer so I do not think this is going to look all that good. :( At any rate I am VERY happy with the way it looks in the water especially. :D:D

Well it has been a while since my last update. The fairing project was side lined as I had some MAJOR rot that needed to be taken care of :( :( Anyhow this pictrure shows more of the filler spread onto the inside of the fairing. This was done MONTHS ago. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

The other day I removed the rub rail off the boat for paint. I liked the look so much that I think it is staying off.

This picture shows the new bulkheads installed. What I did was glass the bulkheads in and am now smoothing them out. These used to be covered in carpet and were one of the reasons that things rotted out.

I have been super bussy at work so I have been having my brothers shop ***** sanding away on the bow. I have been having him take off all the old gell coat. He is sanding tell he can see the glass poke through in a couple spots.

Another view of the bow with out the rub rail.

Lots of progress. I kinda like the look of no rubrail, just like a Gladiators. Did you glass the void left behind?

Good luck.

Bryan: I did not remove the rubrail. I removed the deck rail. To remove the rubrail would be a job that I would NEVER tackle on a boat like this..... :D:D

Thanks, I will try that!!

bryanspeedracer 05-05-2004 12:21 PM

Oooh, sorry I misunderstood. I took a peek at mine as well. It looks like a real chore to get at all of the nuts. I was going to pull my bow rails and have them powder coated. That little project will have to wait for winter;)

I have not read all the posts so sorry if this is a duplicate...

i have a 79 formula 255 that I need the windshield for...is yours available for sale??

Audiofn 05-05-2004 08:40 PM

Prater I doubt it would fit. I thought that some one wanted it but have not heard from them in a while. Let me see if I can get in touch with them and I will try and let ya know.

Do you have any current pictures of the finished project? Any reason that I could not core a fairing with marine ply? Thanks, Chris
