And more on some of the bodywork/finish details. I think I said before that I have two hatches. This one is the CF one and gets the scoop and scale windshield. I got the tiny 1.4mm screw set from Accugroup.
The frame needed cleaning up on the inner edges yet at the time of this pic which is done now.
Anybody know if you can chrome fibreglass? I know you can do plastic.
I’m not sure about that... But I bet that aluminum paint would look great! I’ve had the same idea about using small sockethead cap screws around the windshield. It looks sharp and a great detail!
1.5mm?
Looking awesome
I like the detail work in the stripe down the middle. Are you going to black out the opening of the snorkel over the cockpit?

Too cool, love the Average White Boat decals.
WOW this thing is amazing! I would love to do a build like this in the future!
And next, I figure while I wait for my last decals to show that I would construct my data center. I am going with the Eagle Tree Boat Data Logger. This will run off a 6volt source and read my GPS, RPM,G-Force, and an amp unit capable of 300+. And I will run the Power Panel in the boat. This is 'mocked up' so it will get cleaner. First I made a bed with blind nuts
Then a series of standoffs/nuts/threads
Very nice pictures. It looks awesome.
Nice. Where did you source the threaded collars and inserts from for the data mount?

Thanks, just want to store the idea away as an option in the building arsenal if/when needed.

I find myself at some point after completed build asking myself what the hull weighed bare, so I figured I would state it here. It may be a guide for others or not, but here it is: the hull came in at 100 oz, the lighter sleek hatch was 12oz, and the purdy hatch is 14oz.
I got clear coat done and have begun reassembly
