Progress

Actually went out and cleaned the shop and worked on the boat today. I've been in a state of perplexity concerning this project and how I was going to fit it into my life, it just ended up being me needing some decompression time, and I'm back on it now.




Finally filled and sanded all the low spots, perfect fairness and ready for more duratec. (this will be the final coat, I swear.)



After spending so much time making the hull perfect it seemed like a shame to leave the deck mould surface wavy, so I started fairing that as well, tomorrow I'm going to fill all the depressions with some duratec bondo (duratec/acetone/duratec dust). Its a good filler, easily sandable, and the next coat of duratech will stick to it really well.



And just for fun heres a little foil CFD porn for ya. (thanks FMG)

Be back soon. (I hope)

not much

I've really been slacking off on the build front. I have been working 40 hrs a week at my real job, and 20-25 hrs a week At EBS (doing my best to soak in as much about the dark arts as possible). In some ways its a really good thing because all this knowledge and skill that I'm gaining will lead to much better boats, and I'm saving some money to buy supplies, but its drawing away any energy and time I would have for the build. I did get out and sand for a couple hours tonight, and I'm really going to try to get back on track a little. It seems its taking forever to build this thing, but its happening, slowly, but it is happening.
