Default Re: Project Boat !!!!!

When this thread started the hull popped from the mold clearly was a standard hull for use with either OB or I/O power. Later on in the thread, the "first and only" hull popped from the mold is a diesel powered straight inboard with the pocket/tunnel common to SC inboard configurations.

I have heard of owners converting inboards to standard configurations, but not vice versa. I'd be interested in hearing more about how this was done and done so well. Just asking.

If you look closely, the hull being "popped" is the original Seafari hull used to make the mold. The 1st photos appear to be the removal of the Seafari hull after making the mold. The inboard hull must have been made later. Else why gelcoat in exactly the same color as the blank?

Thanks Fr. Frank. I hadn't thought of that and it certainly makes sense.
The only questions in my mind that remain are; what was the process of creating the inboard hull confsiguration and is it the only 20' inboard hull in existance. I don't believe I have heard or read of any others.
