Yah!!!! I can hardly believe it! The boat is back. So, here are the cold hard facts. When you flip a boat, it does alot of damage. When you have somebody fix the major things, and don't do it yourself, you can't complain to badly about the things they messed up on. Sooo we have to fix a few more little holes, replace some hoses, sand some extra glass, re-glass said glass, and then fix the boat. Doesn't sound to bad does it?

We have the stringers laid in the spiffy new sponson, we have the deck hatches cut out of the new decks, and now we get to start sanding. Oh lucky us, the wonderful hours we get to spend covered in fiberglass dust, itching till the cows come home. (in this case, till the boat floats) Then the time spent leveling them, re-sanding them, spot putty-ing them, re-sanding them, primering them, re-sanding them, filling in all the little bitty tiny holes that fiberglass is notorious for, then re-sanding them. Then maybe, just maybe, we will paint it. Oh, I guess we need the motor in to! Anyone up for some sanding? (that was a honest ?, not just joking) well, I posted the pics of it with the new cockpit and sponson, go take a look and see what you think!
