Well I finally got the necessary bodies together this weekend so out she came, over she went, and back in the shed
The 7" of freshly fallen snow helped cushion the roll. Now I can see the tremendous amount of fun I have to look forward to.

The design is from www.boatdesigns.com (http://www.boatdesigns.com) . A kenhankinson design called the Cuddy Sport 24. I have been posting pics on Image Station as "building the Cuddy Sport 24"

Be happy to give you any info that you might need on the project. I have been keeping ALL records both financial and time to see the real cost of the project. I have also kept info on all the suppliers, good and bad, that I have used. Roger :)

Congrats, Roger. Glad to know that this damn white stuff is good for something! How much time do you hhave invested so far? Are you close to what you expected for time and cost? I'm almost afraid to hear the answer...

Well I added it all up, and to date and it is exactly 157 hours and $4631.02 in parts. Wood around $2500.00 (edensaw) epoxy $999.56 (progressive polymers), 10oz cloth 43 yds $266.81 (infinity composites), bronze screws $381.22 (jamestown dist) the rest ($483.43)is misc. and includes the gas tank. All plywood needed to finish is included in the $2500.00. I Have a new 140hp mercruiser I/O from another boat. I still need to buy steering and control systems, instrumentation and mahogany trims for shear and windshield. I am sure that the misc. will go up considerably. I never had a plan or budget. I just bought everything as I had the money and will finsh the same way. Roger :)
