don't overfill in enclosed spaces.will pop your boards loose.Might have to up heat.They say you save money by building your own boat.I Fibreglassed my boat in January so went thru 3 semi loads of wood for heating in boiler.At 1400.bucks a pop-wheres the savings?Sure is fun tho.

Don't plan on reusing the mix container as that stuff gets really sticky and hard to get out of containers when cured.Not sure what happens in colder temps but foam in a can won't set up too much.Don't glue yourself together if you get it on your clothing

Maybe cause I have a junk 96 Ford Explorer that has that. Trouble is they're bucket style so would have have split seat in boat.

Wonder if anyone thought of trying a power seat base out of junk truck.Up-down-forward -back -tilt even heat to warm your buns on a cold day.

Thanks ,Bill.I had heard that he sold "Knot-so Fast" but not the big boat(I thought that one was metal)I had also heard somewhere,that there was a fire at a marina near there.Was hoping his boat wasn't there.Also knew he had health issues before this covid crap.

Saw this post on the web and had to search for it on here.Thought it might be a good topic to bump forward as I need the same thing on "Chug".Wonder how Tom is doing?Haven't heard anything on last e-mail quite awhile ago(before covid)Maybe Bill knows.

I've done that years ago, when I had my 24ft Fibreform boat.Chug is my slow Bo-jest boat.She just can't keep up to the waves so trials sometimes were pretty rough.Canada waters are closed this last year to recreational non-residents so weren't able to venture up there so limited to Minnesota side on...

I'm bored and looking in the unanswered files.Looking for good reads that might help to bump up.

Yeah! When the waves are going faster than you,tends to broach a little -alot of steering correcting.I was just out to see if I would have problems.It took me 2 hours of chugging to get to that spot.There is a few islands with cabins nearby.I never venture out to the Big Traverse as there are no isl...

How come I didn't see this before? Looks like an interesting read to make spray rails or anything else curved on the Bo-Jest.Thanks Ray

After 1 year of use,zippers are coming a little loose from the sailrite fabric so HH-66 glue is not permanent .Had sewed with ordinary thread also and treated with HH-66 glued but still only held one year.Can't afford sailrite sewing machine so will have to hand sew zippers.

:D Last summer,I went out to large open area on Lake of the Woods ,With 4 and 5 ft rollers.Tried to heel "Chug" over by steering in all directions.Had full load of 20 gals of water and 20gals of fuel.Like riding in a bobber.Don't need ballast-maybe in rougher water.Need spray rails tho.Plus ,going w...

just curious how far you got to get the boat to water.

Really nice boat.I'm sure you mentioned somewhere in your posting-how far are you from the ramp?Just curious.

looking good,Carl. Nice to see you back at it
