thats one of the reasons I tried duraback, so I won't have to work on the hull again, we'll see how it turns out. I've got quite a few comments about duraback, but they deserve their own tread

Looks great! Lots of work there and great idea on the yard sticks!

The only thing I would have done different is painted the gunnles with smooth paint. That non slip paint is pretty hard till you wear down the sharpness some.
But when you on a budget like most of us, you got to go with what you have!

Keep up the good work!!! You are going to have a nice skiff there when you are done!

i definately wanted the gunnels nonskid, beside the fact it saved me a ton ofwork by not having to block out the glass work, I did't want to have a slick spot on the deck, you never know when you might be standing on it. Besides, I think it looks pretty cool

Agreed, I am thinking of a bigger boat when say that, I like to sit on the sides and jig, and other stuff, so non skid would be a issue there, but a small skiff with low freeboard I can see you reason.

Keep up the good work!
