Ha Ha, It's purpose built, poker runs for now and possibly racing in the future.

It's looking great. How much lighter will it be with the composite stringer/bulkheads compared with the plywood?

Not exactly sure, but were estimating 400 to 500 pounds lighter, maybe more or maybe less ? Coosa board and foam core is super light and rock solid. The entire new rear hatch only weighs about 40 lbs. I don't know what the prior weight was, but was planning to weigh it before and after rigging.
