Boat Builder Central

From what I can see of the build notes, if you have mold A mounted to the very front of the jig then it would be 35 1/2" from the end of the jig(basically stern side of A) to the bow side of B. It sounds like you are on the right track. If I may make a suggestion, try measuring as the notes say...

Moat lug nuts are tapered on the wheel side. Bolt holes on the wheels are countered sunk, lug nuts tapered in order to help the wheel center itself as you tighten it

Thanks again....just I was planning on ordering the Epoxy kit and adding a few more gallons :D So the 22 yrds will be enough to cover inside and out making two passes (overlap in the middle)? Not trying to save or scrimp by, just trying to calculate my order and get the big stuff all in one go. I pl...

I'm in the process of converting a boat trailer into a flatbed trailer. Starting to cleanup/rebuild the hubs. Where would i find some kind of ID number on the hub, in order to get the bearing and seal specs? I know I can take the bearings down to the bearing supply and they will measure it...just be...

CL,not to detract from the original post, but I'm putting in a new sole in my speed boat and was going with a very similar layout as what you have done in the pictures. Can you elaborate a little on those seat mounts and how you secured the studs in them? Much appreciated

ive read before that a hole in a "frame" could be cut as long as a 3" lip was left...im wondering if you raised your tank up to almost the highth of the stringer then cut the hole in the frame if that would be acceptable.....then you'd be leaving a lip around the bottom between the ed...
