Has anyone sand off the diamond plate on the casting platform? I'm wondering id the glass is thick enough to sand the texture off and then do non skid.

I did - the pattern isn't that thick so no need to go crazy on it - figure 20 mils maybe?

Yeah you're right  :c023:  I think I aimed for 10 mils when I was spraying my gelcoat and then sanded a lot of that off to get it shiny - so about 1/32" or less is how thick the non-skid is, on top of the gelcoat. I sanded mine down and then non-skid was applied (gelcoat and glass bead).

When I sanded out my liner sides, I had a ton of voids. I'm worried that if I sand out the casting platform that deep I'm going to run into more of the same. My question is was there still plently of glass left for strength?

You shouldn't have a problem.  The non skid is molded in the gel coat.  I doubt that you will need to grind into glass very much if at all.

That's strange, mine measured 3 1/4 inches, which is 13 degrees.

Different animal, but my 1979 CCP measured 13 degrees too.

I just went out to measure again. Mine is was an inboard originally if that helps. I've got 3.5" from the bottom of the trasnom to the inside of the square using the 14" inside-16" outside end of the square. I guess that puts me closer to 14 degrees.

I guess they all can vary a degree or so. They do tell you to take the bottom of the square out to 22 inches minimum. I guess to rule out interference from a hook.
