Boat build
Thought ya'll might like to see the 2072 tunnel hull I'm building It's got a triple taper chine and the sides have a nice fade crimp like the gator-Tail boats. Looks fast lol... 29" sides, tunnel hull, and gonna look like a bass boat inside. Got a 150Efi Merc to push it -couldn't afford a bigger motor

Re: Boat build
I wish the brake was mine, but sad to say it lives in Louisiana where I purchased the aluminum. No one at home could get a 6x20 sheet for about 2 months -let alone 5086. So I drove on down to Loreauville after work one evening with the wife. Got up early, visited with the Gator-Tail crew, and headed back home.
Got the crimping done through Gator-Tail.

Re: Boat build
Looks awesome.... My next accomplishment in life will be to learn the trade of aluminum welding and boat building.
