Did you glass-in those stringers or just cover them with carpet?  Looks good!

thanks. the stringers were glassed and then covered. the boat hull should last for the summer, till i find a pickle fork. just like all you guys, its a never ending story. i have a few extra parts, if anyone needs extra parts. im looking for a water temp guage that goes on the manifold, if anyone has anything laying around. (the autometer gauge i bought today doesnt have a long enough copper line)
