Your doing some nice work,you’ve come a long way since that first Cigarette.

Subscribed... Deep dive projects for sure

Moved up to the front shop and off the trailer. Deck is post cured and peel ply removed. Now there’s no question on bonding abilities with the next layers of product.

time to fit the windshield and bustle.

Nice! Also digging the Fountain.

Bustle blank built. Gruit a500 1.5” foam. Vacc’d down epoxy. Then we draped and weighted the panel with the resin still green over the boat to match and post cure the laminate to the contour of the deck to make fitting easier. Contour’s the core to match the roll of the deck to make seam as small as possible. Epoxy compound to fill the gap. Going to lock it down and rough in the sides before cutting the shape.

center of transom was all swollen from old holes that were deleted so we blew that out. Capping those up with 2 layers of 1700 to hold the swelling down.

she’s moving along nice.

Anxious to see what shape you cut the bustle. Looking great!

I can’t remember, what year and model did this start as again? It was a race boat right.

"Motley Crew" Skater 46'

Thats the one, thanks.

Holly bustle Bat Man that thing is huge!


Are you going to call the boat a 52 now?

it’s just a blank, we’re cutting it down!
