Give me a shout if you need another set of hands,as long as one of them has a cold one in it of course!

Here are some pics of your junk from Bobby G's Place, thought you might want them.



You may need to change her name to "Playmate" after the stack of 1978 Playboys that came out of her!

You're on there SC.......I think the beer to epoxy ratio is 1/1...

Some quick calc's....with a 28 inch setback and a width of 52 inches that'll be 1456 square inches...or 10.1 square feet. So for every inch above the sloped bottom it sinks in the water, that's 0.84 cubic feet...which is 50lbs of flotation. The V bottom is about 8 inches down from the corner so that should be equivalent to 4 inches for the area
which would be 200lbs of water. So I should have 400-500 lbs of flotation...... The old water line on the transom was about 18 inches up from the keel which would give me 14 inches or so of bracket in the water. I think I need more beer to think about this any more...

Why don't you just go buy the aluminum bracket I have up at Bobby's place and be done with it??
