Steve, you have gotten a lot completed since I last checked in. Very impressive work. Really like the attention to detail with your wiring. It’s crazy how much wire is used in these little boats. So close to being completed, cant wait to see you get it in the water.

FS18 Bottom touch ups

Keep in mind that the weight does include all the wiring, fuel lines, hardware etc. that I could not get a manufactures weight f...
