I wish I had more to say lol but my wife and I just bought a house, we closed escrow on April 10, so I was pretty wrapped up with that for the last couple months. However I did make it down to B1 last week to pick up my intake, a new full droop, and a bunch. Of diverter parts I had powder coated. I also just picked up those fiberglass buckets and bench. Should be getting on back on track after memorial. Will post some pics soon.

Took her to a fiberglass shop a couple weeks ago to have a new bulkhead/toe board put in, have him finish glassing the knee braces/ gunnel supports and glass in a new bilge dam. Ended up need new wood supports underneath the deck too. Should have it back in a week or two. Might figure out something with paint or just get it all prepped and in white primer for summer. Hopefully ill be able to get a rail kit in her soon and ive heard a lot of you guys say good things about bostick so i think ill be taking the motor to him sometime soon as well. If anyone would like to give me his number please send me a pm unless you dont mind posting it. Ill post some pics of the work when I get it back. I stopped by the shop today and saw he had already had the toe board cut out for it and it looked pretty good so im stoked.

Got the boat back after getting the bulkhead, forward stringers, and the bilge damn replaced. Everything turned out pretty nice. Now it's time to finally get the new intake set and start working on the keel.

Went past the point of no return today. Started prepping the top half of the boat for a layer of cloth. I ground down and glassed a couple cracks on the deck beforehand that way everything thing should be solid and the cloth should prevent anything from coming through again.

Making progress. Got the deck and whole top side roughed up. Going to pick up materials today and should be laying up the glass this weekend.

There were a few stress cracks on the deck. A couple that I pretty much sanded out and two that I had to repair. I'm gonna cover the whole thing with one layer of 6oz cloth and that will prevent them from coming through again. I was told if you do not do this its pretty much a guarantee they will come back.

honestly I do not think that will work the best way to fix them is to grind them out and fill them with kitty hair and resin

There were really only two that were deep and I ground them down and filled them with mat and resin which should be more than enough. The others were very minor.

It will work just fine. I would maybe put 2 layers of 6 oz👍👍👍 I did the same on my SWTD when I got it.
