reinforcing handle pole area is done

reinforcement on the sides is done

 

[yama_freak615]

on the handle pole area we used epoxy resin with 5 layers of glass, put foam in the holes on the sides

was 6mm thick, now its 11mm thick

on the sides we used did a layer or 18 ounce bi-axel, then a layer 6 ounce, and then 1 layer of 1X1 carbon fiber

[Stingray]

Got Keefer's done last weekend and now FINALLY starting to put parts back on!!!! Found out that the lower brkt[blowsion] has to go on the UMI pole before the pole goes on the hull,& throw in a blowsion spring and it take two to wrestle all that together.Blowsion says to cut 3/8" off spring but it looks like it will need about 1" cut off,even though the brkt is only 5/8"shortened.Waterdawg hood hooks look like they will work fine with some longer bolts.

Its an awesome boat and Stingrays att: to detail is unreal. This will be a 200% better than new boat when done. The Carbon reinforcement looks killer and this boat has new paint top and bottom and I mean the entire bottom has like 6 coats of clear on it too. Major bling.

 

[yama_freak615]

its coming out to be a really tight boat

wondering if anyone else is gonna look at this thread

 

[Dirtybird]
