[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 468327, member: 15465"] Looking good! Mine took a long time to build too, but the end result is worth the effort. I never fully mastered aluminium welding, so I ended up with pin holes, particularly at weld stop craters. I gave up trying to perfect that process & sealed the welds inside the hull with 5200 plus covered the outside with epoxy resin/fiberglass cloth. The latest addition to my boat is a winch mounted at the bow - the last 2 times we went out we ran up on gravel beds (obviously not paying enough attention). Fortunately we were able to lift it off, but next time I am better prepared! Keep the photos coming! [/QUOTE]
