help with shockwave 26

[Tamelesstgr]

Hey Bruce, I did finally complete the epoxy application on the problem areas. Feels rock solid now, it's not the purdiest, but I'm learning. I'll add some new pics to my build thread I started. I want to take a shot at fabricating some trim tab / turn fins that are a little bigger.

Still thinking about the paint scheme. I want to do a water droplet effect I saw on YouTube on the top of the hull and hatch that was pretty neat. On the sides of the hull, maybe a little carbon fiber effect and then the logos.

I'm still half tempted to just put her back together and see what she runs before paint, 30-40 per the OSE calculators depending on prop selection 40-51mm. Should put me right where I want to be versus the Supervee 27 and BJ29 on 4S.
