Parts joined and reinforced with fiberglass ribbon..will pull them out tomorrow.

[grsboats]

Tub is good and strong..sponsons will stay till tomorrow in the molds as they were laid up later and temp here is low (7C)

[grsboats]

Forgot to post the fiber reinforcement in the tub and sponsons.Two 1" fiberribbons plus one 1/2" in the tub and two 1/2"in the sponsons.

Some work at the shop...need to make six before start building them.We decided to use colored resin to avoid painting but honestly I will paint mine(yellow)..kkk

[grsboats]

Ok boats were laid up and from now on I will post pics of the building process of the yellow boat(mine)...this pic shows two boats ready to be shipped to customers and they will be painted .Gill

Nice work Gill. They look beautiful.

[grsboats]

Thanks Bob..the idea was to produce boats without the need of painting but at the end everyone will paint their boats accordingly to the fiber color..LOL Gill

[grsboats]

Pics of the progress.as this boat uses the same hardware of the proto I will save some snaps of the building.

[grsboats]

Top notch Gill!

[grsboats]

Thanks hope to be able to post more progress in a few days as I need to ship some boats to customers.Gill

[grsboats]

Boat is painted and ready to be reassembled....white pearl with blue just to get some contrast.Motor is a Leo X2 3660 2380kv with a T180 V3 esc.

[grsboats]

more pics....carbon fiber turn fin was made in closed molds via resin transfer molds (RTM) and weights only 9 grams.

[grsboats]

The interior of the hull was sanded and received a very thin coat of epoxy resin for finishing.We have four boats ready for some action this weekend so I hope have videos too to be posted.Thanks Gill
