That fairing in of the cap rail in the stern has a really nice line at the picture angle.. How does it look from a distance off the quarter?

got some white ebond over about all raw glasswork. still have to do a couple things on the rear. its a thin epoxy paint that gets real hard. i like to put it over all my raw glass. everywhere that isnt getting nonskid will get an epoxy primer before the awlgrip. going to try some stuff my glass supplier is pushing on me called "nauticote". supposed to be like a 545, and its the right price so...

debating on non skid color though, light gray or a real light green kinda like an aquamist. any opinions?







and my favorite part of the boat, toe recesses on the back of the phone booth

Looks great on your rebuild. :thumleft:

thanks guys. getting little things done after work..

sleeving bracket mounting holes. paddle bit goes as deep as the inside skin then pipe goes in with thickened epoxy. going to have to grind some around the sleeves and cap with glass on the outside. i would have rather saved the outside skin but drill wouldnt fit on the inside. it is what it is, the bracket will cover it at least.

The top for the pilot house came out beautiful. Solid work; that thing is a piece of art, and you can just see the man hours that you've no doubt got tied up in building it. :salut:
