Hi all. Working on a 1976 Nordic Scandia 18' 3" bubble deck "family ski boat" . Built back in the days of quick and dirty jet boat sales. It needs some (a lot) of help to make it stiffer and stronger and do what I want it to do. It's a thin lay-up so it means it is light and a little flexy. Will fix the flexy part. Not looking to go over 80 mph. 70 to 75 will be good. More like 70 plus (for a long time).  A rough water lake boat for morning breakfast runs on lake Mead and playing at Parker AZ. I believe in it, but it needs some love and time and $. Mostly lots of time. Gunna run the original BBF block, Berkeley JC, and (maybe not original) Jet-o-vator. Have already done some work to it and will try to show what what's been done and will try to keep up with the project as it progresses. Nothing special. Just drivable.
