Are you going to glass in the bridge or have it removable for ease of service and such?

Can that bustle be used on other boats, i assume the only issue will be width! But believe the 36 is same as the 28 right?

Bustle was sprayed with gel. Doing a sanding before she gets capped to the hull.

Bustle is bring mocked up. Ready to be adhered and capped to the hull

 

[Eliminator Boats]

Bustle is now permanently laminated to the hull. Capping begins tomorrow!

Damn those tomato cans are the Leatherman tool of the boat building industry! Amazing how many different jobs they can do.

I have always wondered where you get them in bulk? Italian restaurants or do you guys just really like spaghetti sauce?

capping the bustle to the hull now begins. Will be as strong as any other part on the hull.

[Eliminator Boats]

grinding the cap

 

[Eliminator Boats]

capping on the bustle is complete. Flipping the hull over to paint the bottom of the bustle first.

 

[Eliminator Boats]

bare hull weighed in at 4400lbs with tanks and bustle

 

[hallett21]

Very cool to watch it all come together. Is there any consideration to pull a new mold off of the completed boat? I'm sure the customer wouldn't be thrilled but it seems like it would cut down on the labor for the next one.

Sponson hatches are being built for coolers. Last thing before we start rigging.

 

[Meaney77]

I just went through and started at the 1st post again to see all of the progress made on this, pretty amazing how much time and effort goes into these molds and making these changes!

Any ideas when this boat will see water?

 

[Eliminator Boats]
