labii, seakindly,
i'm putting in a 26gal. belly tank, i'm mainly useing the boat on fresh water lakes.if i plan on useing out on lake michigan i have a portable 12gal. tank i would take with.
i don't know about painting it yet, all depends how it turns out after i acid wash and wet sand.
i would like to put a 250 merc on it, but i would have to mortgage the house, and that ain't going to happen ;D
i'm useing 3/4" constrution plywood for the stringers. 1/2" for the transom, 1/2" one side sanded for the floor.all will be totally soak with resin......
i will be putting down a piece of either 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" pvc pipe from the fuel tank forward and pouring in foam the full length of the stringers which will be about 14 to16ft. i may allso pour the foam under the bow pan under the bow platform, that sould keep the boat floating. i hope i don't need to find out. :) :) :)
this is really a learning experience.......... ??? hope the pictures help.............ken
