Jeff ,

Great progress!

Will be fun to see how you fit the stern drive in it and finish off the engine compartment.

It looks to me like the deck and hull of the Fundeck came out of the exact same molds regardless if they were outboard or sterndrive powered.

Kip that was my thought also. That?s why I wanted to go with a I/o. Plus going to make the motor mounts that will allow a 4.3 or a 350 if a change needs to be made

Yes, a 350 with through hull exhaust!

Thanks to Joe Bigalow the wood is all in the bottom of the hull.

Thanks to Joe we were able to get the top flipped over and the old decking removed and ready for the new under deck

Hanging

Getting the cart ready. We put 3/4 osb on top of the 2x6 so everything is flat

carlsoncvx18 · « **Reply #33 on:** February 18, 2024, 05:27:21 PM »

The wood 3/8 plywood was bonded with some filler that they use on the transoms. Everything was sanded then filled most all the voids.

Coremat then plastic core going down

carlsoncvx18 · « **Reply #35 on:** February 25, 2024, 01:18:47 PM »

Then over the top with csm

carlsoncvx18 · « **Reply #36 on:** February 25, 2024, 03:52:19 PM »

Deck has a layer of csm and tied into gunnels with 2 layers of 1808. Manage to go thru 5 gallons of resin today.

Great progress Jeff!

When you're done with it, the Fun Deck will be a better built boat than when it left Glastron's factory.

I really admire people that can do things like this, that intimidate me (my boat needs a floor).

Great progress Jeff and team. 5 gallons of resin in a day, how do you keep the smell out of the house? Can't wait to see it, hopefully in August?
