its nearly impossible to get a side shot, have all the finish work done on the capping. Going to gelcoat that next to really tune up the line. I like the clean look of capping and this thing was nearly capped from the factory. The deck and hull joint are as about as close as you could want to do this process.

from the pic it looks like, balsa --- 20 layers of glass--- balsa
if it is glass in between, why in between and why so many layers for a floor ?

if the dust gets any deeper on the shop floor you'll have to bust out the snowblower
when i look at that picture i start itching, it's like sympathy vomiting or a contact high you get a rush concert.
