    boat build of course!

    boat build of course!

    Well was out of town for the weekend but managed to get two hatches cut and sealed most of the wood. The last thing I'm having a problem with is how many or what to do with back hatches. Should I do two bigger ones or big in middle and smaller ones on each side? The thing that worries me is...

I personally wld like to use my right hand to control tiller but also read about torque if motor can make boat til because of clockwise prop rotation. And seat is on right side to balance that.

    I'm having a hard time deciding about floor supports. Aluminum angle wld be best but I don't see a confident way to secure it at top of the ribs. Any ideas?

    Yea it should! I had a hard time finding a marine grade powder so got architectural grade which may even be better. It's rated for 3000+ hrs of salt spray (like from roads) before any sign of wear

    Ok powder coat was a sucess. I was worried about original sealant oozing out everywhere in the oven but it went well. Had only two spots that a drop or two came out. Which makes me think maybe it was excess sealant to begin with. Either way I'm gonna go over it all with some 5200
