Thats for the Hunter 170 next to it.
That makes me wonder if I couldn’t get that canoe sailing though.
Hahaha you could name it The Tail
As in the rudder is the tail that wags the dog.
Looks great! Good luck with it. Hope it stays on.
I dig it!
And thank you! I’ll post an update once its done and in the water
Building and fixing is fun anyway. Looks pretty close to being done.
It’ll probably be one or two more weekends worth of work, but I think I’m close. Its been an interesting learning experience, and honestly one that I probably couldn’t have done without a 3d printer. I’m very glad I gave it a shot and didn’t dump the boat like I had initially though about
I built a replacement part for a boat, but used pkywood and Gflex...and lots of sanding.
I’m about to start the sanding process. I did a bit by hand before deciding to pick up a sanding tool this week. Fingers crossed that makes the fiberglass sanding easier as well
Don't forget masks.
