[QUOTE="deadkitty, post: 448096, member: 9486"] Get that crack welded and you should be good to go. Benches can be just about any wood as long as you seal it well, I prefer spar urethane, but there are many good solutions. 9.5hp will be completely fine, probably won’t get you on plane, but it’ll get you around. To plane you’d probably want a 20hp+ depending on weight/balance, might be able to go with a 15hp. I wouldn’t take it with a 9.5hp anywhere with current. Looks like a great platform, congrats on the new project! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
