Yea
Yea, been to the fiberglassics site before. My next boat project is a real boat with fins. It's a 50's Red Fish Shark.
I have looked at your project thread before too. Very impressed.
We did a 16' Weirdt Maverick jet boat a few years ago, big job like yours, new floor, stringers, gauges, interior, paint engine cover etc. The engine and pump were fine so nothing done there. Had maybe $3500 in it, sold for $6000 two years later. Sometimes it's worth it if you don't pay yourself for the labor. If you do, HA, it's a losing deal, but half the fun is getting there.
