Got some work done on the boat this week. I built molds for the stringers cut them to fit and glassed them into place. I grinded and grinded and grinded some more. That wasnt a typo! I ripped all the marine ply for stringers, screwed them together and coated them in polyester resin to seal them. I removed the motor and took a good look at the transom and it is in good shape I filled and glassed the the old drain holes. I decided to have the bottom soda blasted and they came on saturday. I took the boat off the trailer and blocked so they could blast it. I have sanded and grinded alot of bottoms and I figured I would give this a try and I am glad I did it was the best money ever spent. they took 4 coats of bottom paint off right down to the original gelcoat. I am considering having the hull sides blasted.

this week I am planning on glassing the stringers in and putting weep holes in the stringers for drainage. and start building the mold for the decks. I got my delivery of divyncell , PVA and duratec high build primer. here are some pics I might need some help with them
