Swung by the factory today, boat is looking great, bulkheads were going in today, gas tank is going in next week
Tank came out great, 136 gallons, so 10 gallons more then was originally planned for Transom feels like a rock and double bulsa core in the floor came out great Rick is doing an amazing job. |
Yeah, the boat is coming out beautiful.Finally completed the deck by glassing the forward bulkhead. It's ready to pull out. Also finished glassing in the fuel tank bulkheads, plus the drain tube which runs under the tank. Here are a few pics.

Here are the fuel tank bulkheads and the drain tube. Also the notch in the transom has the wood finally attached and balsa cored over. As you can see... hte bulkheads are glasses in the way a bulkhead should be. ;)

What a pleasant surprise to see all these pics so early in the morning. Late Edition SBTV is awesome :)
Will the the hull be foam-filled so that the tanks don't hit that tube? When will the hull be pulled? Awesome pics Rick...keep 'em comin' :) noli |
Just heard from SB Central....gas tank has been foamed in, letting it set for a few hours then clean up the excess foam and glass over it!
|
Rick loves foaming in tanks. That means the shop is warm. Foam doesnt kick rite under a temp of 70.

He no longer offers the rum, its now something he calls "Superjuice", all I know is it has alchohol, its illegal in 37 states, and you cant have it within 10 feet of a four stroke verado, propane tanks or anyone who has had heart surgery :):):)

I always wanted to be on Superboat TV so I stopped by the shop. But no camera crew. Just Rick with a tub of resin in one hand and a roller in the other. It just was not my day. The boat did look good.
