thanks RW. This winter I'm going to copy that back seat of yours. I'll let you see it next summer.

Purdy Work captn. What size wood and glass/how much did you use if you dont mind me asking. Im considering laying one more layer of cloth on mine but i cant decide. I wish i had a shop like that.

I used 3 layers of 1/2" plywood. Then I used woven roving. The last layer being woven roving with a heavy matting on the other side. I faired it out with 3M premium marine filler. It came out real strong. I'm confident that it could hold two of the motors that are on it. I plan on doing the same with the floor this winter. I'm going to try and shoot the Awlgrip non skid on it when its done. The floor now is too slippery when its wet.

Its my shop that I work at. I'm just lucky enough to be able to use it for my own projects after hours.
