"Go blue with the bracket!!"

Well...that pic got me thinking....I went blue...1st coat went on and it looks great. 2 more to go. I copied Bonefish's tape job basically. Blue bracket white deck on platform.

Hi Don. That artwork you do down in Stuart is truely inspiring. BUT..I think I killed Bigshrimpin with this project You should see him sand in his flip flops No wonder he itches all of the time. Big...I also added some glass on that seam/joint you told me to do (2 layers inside and out). With the platform core molds glassed in place the whole thing is SOLID and nothing short of impressive More pix soon...after that I'm going fishin.

I like that color scheme . . . doing the bracket work in sandals has inspired me to learn how to weld aluminum I have a feeling that your boat is going to be rigged and running very very soon. I can't wait to see it!! Don't forget to use HUGE (2" squares or larger) washers or backing plates when you mount it.
