Really nice :13:
What do you figure it weighs now?  Did you make your own fairing compound?

Not sure, maybe a hundred and a quarter?

Yea the tan stuff is West Microlight which sands like a dream.  Brown stuff on the livewell hatch lip is microballoons w a lil milled fibers to sharpen that radius.  Blue stuff is some Interlux Watertite I just use for small spots.  Red is some pinhole filler after 545 primer.  Then i wipe it w denatured alcohol and food coloring to sand...

Painted this morning.  4 parts insignia white 1 part aristo blue awlgrip

Sweet - I don't think your friend will be able to say much but  :c029:

A question about paint in a live well.  Will it be ok if they leave it full for say a week?

Hmm i dunno really?     Probably wouldnt be great for it, but then again they awlgrip bilges with standing water all the time.     This thing will have 3 drains.  One recessed in the bottom for emptying when not in use.   Then 2 up towards the top for overflows (no standpipe).   Still have o figure out plumbing and pumps to incorporate (or not) with the 2 transom wells.

Welp, this thing is now FOR SALE. Figured Id try to drum up some interest here before it goes to CL.

Its painted in "Insignia white" awlgrip (although not a great paint job, someone else did that). It is very fair though, a quick sand and spray to color match would be quick...   Never installed obviously.   Needs a lid for the well and some hardware.

PM me for price  :D
