good for you bro-

get some white in that paint though to make it pop more imo-

I will not ride this thing in fear of never wanting to ride my boat again. Stay far away from me you sonofabitch.

Doc has a new boat too, did ya hear?

My old hull was a bit heavy. :biggrin: I can't wait to see what this motor feels like in a skinny hull rather than the lard-ass from last year.
You're welcome to ride it anytime. This one would have come around all the way where you stuffed the SJ last year. :haha:

also, what did the blowsion boys have to say about it. impressed im sure.

It's hard to impress those guys. They ALWAYS have super-nice stuff just sitting around. I stopped by the shop sometime last year and found an older Lightweight.de hull just collecting dust in the rafters. :biggrin:
That said, they all complimented me on the nice, LIGHT hull. They were interested enough to uncrate it and put it on a stand, after all.

Glad to see you got it. We could race to see who puts their ski together first. You'll probably win...i'm still motorless for now.

Are you using a spray gun for the whole paint job or will you be airbrushing the stencils?

A gun for everything but the smaller details. I.e., we'll be using an airbrush gun for the stripey things.

I was planning on painting it anyway. The tooling gelcoat that's on there seems pretty thin. I wouldn't run just that finish.
About the layup: Since I unfortunately spend most of my time on flatwater, I went for the carbon version. However, it is the heaviest carbon layup has done to date.
I had Tem do a few "weird" things to this hull. It does not have a scupper. It has a waterline to run the OEM bilge setup.

Btw, my hull was in nice company at the Blowsion shop. I thought I would just pick up the crate and peel it off once I got home.
Nope, by the time I got to the shop it was unpacked and put on a stand next to two Lightweight.de boats, the Rickter that Ross rode in Daytona, and another Rickter.

to clarify i ment the 710 in the 56 pounds freak hull. yeeeeeeeeeea.... no more darting for me. im proud to say i never touched bottom in daytona in waist deep water... never pulled the trim once :) and now that you have rocker, if you do come in steep it naturally wants to come up un like the SJ shaped like a torpedo when it goes underwater.

well thats a good sign and im sure they were super impressed, tem deff. makes an amazing product!!!

Blowsion sells other aftermarket hulls (Lightweight.de and Rickter). They are not really in the business of building their own hulls.

Huh ???
A what ???
Never mind.

How much padding will you use in the tray ? Them Florida boys don't believe in the cushy stuff but how else will you install the in-floor heating.
