Thanks Bryan.... My son purchased many Festool items about five years ago and wasn't using them much. So he gave them to me to use. The RO sander is a Festool and you can see it on the floor of the second picture above. It does have a handle on it which makes it very easy to control. It is very powe...

Looking really nice Carl. For future reference, somewhere along the way I learned that plastic thru hulls should not be used below the water line on wood boats. I forget why exactly, but I think because wood moves, the fittings could crack. Not 100% sure of that.....

I spent the last few days behind my six inch RO sander with 40 grit paper. I have cleaned off all the excess epoxy off the entire hull and have roughly faired about half. I will be sanding again tomorrow and Tuesday if necessary to finish rough sanding. Then I will do some long boarding to get it fa...

Troy... On my Gentry which is about the same size and weight as your boat, I had a 1:1 trans, 310 HP small block, one inch shaft, and finally got the WOT RPM to 5200 running a three blade prop 13/15. I originally had a three blade 13/13 on it and the WOT RPM was too high. One thing to keep in mind i...

Good to be back at it.. Thanks everyone for the encouragement. Matt-- You really have me thinking on that conspiracy thing !!

Well so far the PB 22 is still with me and as things are now, I don't see a way to sell our house in the near future. So I have continued with the build. I just finished the cold molding layers on the transom, sides, and bottom. So there are two layers all the way around of 1/4" ( 6mm ) Okoume. The ...

Looking great Carl... Is the roof top going to be glassed?

Thank Ben... It was nice meeting you as well. Gotta love that laser !!

How about two fuel tanks.... One under the stb seat and one under the port. Make the helm console and seat slightly narrower, the port base slightly wider. Put a matching seat on each side. That may give you room to pass through to the cabin. I'm sticking to my original suggestion: Seating for two u...

Jim..... I don't have a picture of my Gentry aft trailer tie downs, but what I did was take two pieces of 3/8" rope with a loop in one end. I attached each of the looped ends to my center aft lifting ring on the aft deck. Then I got two pieces of foam pipe insulation (looks like a swimming noodle) a...

Lee,,,, Raptor sells the Omer stapler and brad nailer. there is a guy there named Richard (talk to him). Their phone # is 512-846-4027. Please keep us posted...Neel

Carl.... I also like the layout, but I would seriously reconsider the copilot seat. I think I would lower the height of the cabinet and then mount a seat on top with a much shorter vertical support than on the starboard side. That would also mean you would have to consider legroom on the forward end...

Lee, I am one who had the same problem with my stapler. A friend of mine gave it to me after he had completed his build. He had the same problem with it and sent it to some company in New England where they rebuilt it. I had been using the brad nailer for everything until I got the stapler. It worke...

FINALLY.... I talked to Hannah at Hales Bar this morning and they have decided to give our group a 10% discount on the nightly rates for Floating and Land cabins. So our nightly rates for the floaters are as follows: 1 br floater Sun - Thursday 111.60, Fr and Sat 134.10, cleaning fee 29; 2 br floate...

Thanks for the kind words everyone... I will be choosing a smaller boat design to build in the future.
