Now that you mention it I'm seriously considering mounting the side plates on the motor jack upside down. They'll fit either way. Just seems appropriate ...?

Call the boat "Creative Canvas" in big bold letters on each side and write the boat off on your tax return as an advertising expense.

Got the knees cut out and ready to laminate. 3/8" Nidacore sandwiched with biax. Makin em a lil taller and longer to start.

Many thanks to Mike Muscato aka "Dago" for the Nidacore! Gave me three 2 x 4 sheets, and another with just a tiny rectangle out of one corner.

Oughta be more than enough to beef up the transom and do the floor. Have plenty of biax & mat. Just need to pick up some resin tomorrow. WooHoo!

Very much so but has a almost waxy feeling on both sides. When you look at it real close it has a bunch of little diamond shaped dimples on the surface.

Well just in case anyone was wondering why things have come to a grinding halt. I'm laid up with this damn diverticulitis again. Someone please shoot me!
