I did put a layer of 12 oz on there already and will be running a layer of carbon over it when I do the rest of the boat.

LOOKS LIKE poop Brent!!!! Haha just kidin. It's all uphill from here. Now you get to start re-enforcing instead of sandin the hell out of everything, and you'll feel like your actually getting something done. You'll be sealing up the tray before the end of the month. No doubt it will be in daytona.

I pulled the clamps off tonight and will be starting reinforcement on monday. It is coming out nice and am really happy with it so far. I will try and weigh it tomorrow.

If you ever want the full story on what it takes, swing on up to my place some time and take a look at mine (I'm in Wayland).
Brent, that thing is going to be awesome in Daytona!
dslicker, just wanted to know what size pvc and what threaded end to use for the steering cable tube. Cause i know their is a nut that screws in to seal it off. i dont fell like pulling my other ski apart to check it, plus i dont have the money to buy the cable and all the other parts on the riva diagram,thanks.

My motor showed up Thursday so I decided to build it and put it in my other boat so I could tune it and make sure it ran the way I wanted. I will give a full review of it later this month.

So I weighed it today and it came in around 85-90lbs (my scale gave me different weights due to pavement) that is with tubbies,exhaust,scupper and bottom re-enforced. Should I be pissed?

Not at all! Mine came in at 88 lbs when complete and I was ecstatic! The bottom deck is 56 lbs and the top is 12 - that alone is 68 lbs. Once you add on bonding, reinforcing, nose building, and FOAM, that number grows fairly fast. Heck, my 4 lb foam accounts for 12+ lbs alone.
You'll love it when you put it in the water. You'll never be happy on a stock weight hull again. :grouphug:

I still have to re-enforce the sides and foam. so I will probably end up at 100 lbs.

Crap, you didn't mention that...:wavey:
If you use 2lb foam (like I wish I would have) you'll save 6 lbs there.
I think you ought to weigh it on a couple of different scales when your done too.
