Wally thanks for the extra pics.

I was driving through Brigantine today and spotted a 25' on the street.

I was contacted through another website and told by this new owner that there will now be another in the area.

Hey Steve I have a good question. I told you before I worked on the tooling for the Sunsation 43 and have done many other smaller projects. I was talking to a friend yesterday and he was telling me how another boat builder "floats" out of the mold. I am well aware and have used air to pop a part. I will not mention the builder but was told they "float" the hull from the mold with water. I do understand the theory but would be worried about damage to the molds... Your thoughts???

Using water to release a tight part is common practice,This is less damaging than the more aggressive methods would be, reason being it is trying to seperate the Mold from the work piece ,where say a straight pull is applying force to the mold as well.
Thanks for asking.

Sir No problem, at Danny's Powerplay I usually sprayed a heavy coat of our CCP Production gelcoat to check my release system on a new mold before I went home,The next morning strip it out, everything OK then 1 more wax and send it over to Lamination.

Awesome, did Armstrong Bbracket lend this out to boat factories, or did Dan make it to test all the 33's and this 38 with outboards?? great way to dial in!!

A long time ago when Danny was working out the heights and setback on the first 33's, He had Ted Jones make up a couple of them to get that bracket dialed in ,Now when the 38 came along Danny had a third test/setup bracket made copying off his orginal two he still had stored over in the Race Shop.

A little 25 PP with eggbeaters might be something I'd be interested in some day, tired of crawling around a bilge the older I get, tired of hauling a big boat around too. Steve...If I'm not mistaken the deadrise is 22 degrees? The entry is a bit shallow too, correct? I boat in the Sound and it gets choppy quite often, I've had a 22 degree hull before and it was a bit tough in the slop.

Sir yes the bottom is 22 degrees,and that is why Dan did the pad the way he did, have someone give you ride in one,We ran them on the outside down here and it gets bumpy out there.
