You expert you!

just to be clear - I did quite a bit before curling up under my bow for an afternoon..
But there is little getting around it.. Time will be spent in cramped places

ahh the fun of crawling around inside the boat with no place to go

I clearly remember curling into a ball behind my dashboard for a day as I got all of the wiring in place..
and I tend to hit my head a lot..

Looking good!

Agreed - laminate and scarf - stronger and more stable.. with the benefit of less cost.

Looking good -
I remember it going much faster after completing the finish work
(not my favorite part at all)
Great milestone!

I'm sure you've seen this - use a circle jig to do it. These make large circles pretty easily - and you can make this out of scrap https://bperkins.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/img_4901.jpg?w=736 Then cut the outer hole - I was afraid of a slip - so I left tabs and made the final cut by hand. https:/...

Congrats!
It felt like It took years when I did mine.. Huge milestone for such a simple statement

Twisting 1/2" plywood is going to be a pain... its going to put up a fight.. pulling on frames, etc as you get it into position..
just a thought.

Nice to see my site is still getting used. and agreed - If you want to be certain to have no voids - vacuum is the best way to do it.. Vacuum is the perfect clamp - 2000+ pounds of clamping pressure per square foot in the exact shape of your boat.. AND - if there is a void potential - the vacuum pul...

Both are flat bottom at the transom
That means they like flat water
If you will use the boat where there is a lot of chop - you want some 'V' at the transom.
But they are pretty similar otherwise.

Making the seating was a source of anxiety.. When I did mine - there wasn't a lot of reference material.. I'm not sure there is now.. That said - I went out and took measurements from my daily driver.. seat depth, height, angle, etc.. That turned out to be a big help in getting close to the final se...

Nice job

Great work!

This was my favorite build week - my company had shutdown.. best Christmas present ever.. A week of building.
home stretch!

I'm betting they are a reseller..

You may want to wait until your seats are in place and make sure it will direct the wind over your eyes (and hat if possible)
