Great job man! Wish I had this experience when I was 18!

Thank you! And I have to give all that credit to my dad. If it wasn't for him teaching me and guiding me through life who knows where else I would be wasting my time and money at. If you see this dad I appreciate it!

Finally got to vaccum bag for the first time! Got a few layers down in the tray area of the jetski. As to the vaccum bagging process itself I'd say that went less than optimal. Ended up having a leak somewhere and wasn't able to pull a proper vaccum, I was pulling less than 1/2, an atmosphere at peak. I tried double sealing the bagging film but that still didn't work. It still turned out nice and I laid enough carbon to withstand the forces without having to vaccum bag so I'm not worried about strength. Hopefully I'll get it right when I go to do the visual carbon on the bottom. If anyone has any advice I'd gladly listen.

Sadly the last post I made is where the hull sits as of right now, ended up leaving for the airforce last year and currently living on base in North Carolina, I would love to finish the ski but have no where to work on it and no longer have the tools to do so, I am debating on selling it but probably would not get any where near what I have put into it at this point, at this point I'm just looking for an a/m hull that's drop in ready but I can not find one that's not below $6000 I'd love to own a hurricane or a rickter ect ect but not wanting to spend that type of money
