 Re: 1846/1848
This look about right as fas as enough curve? Gotta put some cross bracing then ill be able to pull it all together.

 Re: 1846/1848
I pulled the front in and tacked everything but it looked bad. I didnt brace it at the top, so the gunnel came in instead of curved in.

 Re: 1846/1848
A lil progress. Ended up just puttin slits instead of rollin the runners. Not to bad. Gonna put the rest in the am. Got the front end done. PITA! and started on the deck. Its gonna be like a 4'6 storage with a 15" extended for fuel tank. Havent decided if ima leave it open or curtain it.

 Re: 1846/1848
Looking good, im thinking about getting a boat built to put a 35 GTR on and this is exactly what im looking for. If you don't mind me asking, how much do you have invested in materials?

 Re: 1846/1848

 Re: 1846/1848
cool, i might go talk to someone tomorrow. I was looking at a used complete 07 35 GTR 18/46 setup, but the guy is beating around the bush. I been supposed to look at it for 3 weekends straight. I already have the money. I've been thinking and i think it would be smarter for me to just spend a lil more and buy a new motor and get a boat built. That way i will know what i'm getting and will have a warranty.

 Re: 1846/1848
Eh, wasn't able to work on it at all this weekend, I'm got the transom on floors down last weekend in a day. Hopefully weather permits more work this coming weekend. I'll be able to get it close to complete if so

 Re: 1846/1848
Started on the transom. Still gotta cut some kind of bracing for the deck and box it all in. Comeing along little by little, this weather got my schedule all screwed up.
