Re: "La Flaca" aluminum added!!!

Re: "La Flaca" FS18 Spashed!!
Johna, I cut out the plywood to the straight sheer version, thinking that was the look I wanted. After glassing and fairing the hull on the jig, I decided to shave her down from the straight sheer look. I shaved 3" on the back half of the boat then figured out an amount to decrease every foot t...
