It has been great to watch your progression! Man you put in an amazing amount of work. Your boat will be stellar and one of a kind!

Good catch... I'm happy you spotted that. I'm getting ready to do the same thing with a 23 Mako that I'm redoing... I was gonna use three 2x12......

I used the W.A.G. engineering system, I guessed the boat @ 3000 lbs stripped = 1500 lbs per end = 750 lbs per corner.

It's back on the trailer now ......... guess my lucks "Good" ;-)

Hey Guys ... Guess what I did today?
