Alright folks, interior has been primed and sanded. Question - I love the reflection on the outside of the hull I have achieved with the Interlux Perfection, but I am worried about going blind with this level of reflection on the interior. I have purchased the Interlux Flattener to bring the...
2nd coat of Interlux Perfection on the hull sides! So shiny it looks like the plastic on the floor is draped over the side of the boat. Going to lightly sand and give one more coat before calling the hull sides complete.
Just ran my HIN on the hindecoder.com site and it pulled up my model information. Might give it a try, below is a snippet from the report, btw it is free...
Been awhile since I posted, but still moving along. Leaning post installed, side gunwale steps re-cored and reinstalled, all vinyl stickers removed, and tons of fairing done on hull,. Getting very close to being ready for paint.
Coffin cover on mine was completely rotting as well. You will need to remove the console or at least hinge it back in order to remove the lid if it is the same design as mine. Console was probably the easiest part of the demo. :) I used a multi-purpose tool with a grout blade to remove the...

I have reinstalled the liner minus the area where I had to cut out the floor. I am not...

Currently working on replacing the top cap to hull backing strips. Using 3/8 inch marine plywood, 1 layer of 1708, and 1 layer of CSM. Here the strips are cut and getting 2 coats of resin before installing.
Quick update, haven't posted in awhile.
Since last post I have completed the installation of a 13 gallon under deck water tank, foam poured in all cavities, and the deck panels glued and screwed in. I glassed the underside of these panels with 1 layer of 1.5 oz CSM, used PB on top of the...
Been awhile since my last post, so I figured I would give a quick update.
Stringers, bulkheads, and in-floor cooler are all complete, and I am currently dry fitting the deck. The cooler box was a little adventure, but I was able to get it done. When I made the mold I should have added a...
