    Looking for a new Hull

    See this is what happens when you have had ENOUGH. I scuffed the seprations, preped it & noticed some tape glue in the white area on the bow. So I tryed to peal it off. No good. I used some nail polish remover on it. Well than just made it bind to the paint and create puddy. So I bust out the sander..That just starts mixing it..So I push a little harder an the hull cracks down the freeboard on both sides.... Then I stomped the s_ _ t out of it. That was the most satisfaction I got from the entire project so far. Looking for a new hull......

          No doubt.......... I especially like the "most satisfaction part" ha ha ha :D

          Dang Tom, I'm sorry man. It's still a good thread. LOL
          I've been there before, just couldn't bring myself to smash the s*&% out of it.
          Man.......... I bet that did feel good. ROFLMAO

          It looks like the paint just slid.

              Remember dude... degreaser, light coat(very light), let It tack then a thicker(not to thick) second coat. Don't try to lay the paint on all at once.

              I feel your pain bro but, thanks for a good laugh!

                  New Hull

                  I have been waiting for these hulls to come down in price from 75 bucks. Today I got my wish. I guy is listing them for 45 bucks delivered. After selling my imortal soul to the devil for 45 bucks.... SOLD!! lol 30x9 with 5 inches of freeboard and a whole lot of room inside. It wont make much past 20mph if that but I dont care @ this point. I'm going to build a gillbracket and hang that outboard off the stern. Screw a catch on the bow and be done with it.

                      Oh yeah every thing in this hull is a pile of crap for sure. I'm sure the hulls soft too. But it don't have to to anything but float and push. Anyway it will be smaller lighter and easer to tote than the tug was.
