I won't lie, it's a LOT of work. And it isn't easy, but at the same time it isn't hard. This is the largest fiberglass project I've ever undertaken by a long shot (previously built a handful of fiberglass RC airboats with hardware store poly resin) but with the knowledge found here and other forums I think I've got a solid plan to achieve my goal. My pocketbook begs to differ but that's another matter LOL. Knowing the hours I've got in on this thus far I don't even want to fathom a guess at what a pro shop would charge. I'll be lucky to get my cap back on before winter here in the Ohio Valley. That's the goal right now.
I got the transom glassed on today. I'll post an update on that later when I'm on the couch with the laptop. A storm is rolling in right now. Gotta keep an eye on my tarp and make sure I don't get any water in the bilge since I don't have a drain at present!
