Re: FS 19 build
Been sanding away. Also looked at trailers last week and will order one tomorrow. Had a mini split air conditioner installed this week in the garage. That will really help keep things moving along over the next few months as it gets hot here. Did a test with a sample of PVC spray rail that I receive...

Re: How to Make Spray Rails
Thanks guys. These several examples are real helpful. A sample of a pvc extruded spray rail is being sent to me to play around with. Been using this as part of my delaying tactic for fairing the hull. Like Eric, Sanding is not my favorite part of boat building.

Now onto sanding, fairing, adding spray rails and then priming and painting. It has been about 6 weeks since...

Re: FS 19 build
Reid, Thanks for the kind words. Most all of the work on the boat so far has been solo work. My wife helped me to move the full length panels on to the mold and I had friends help unloading the kit from the truck when it was delivered. Otherwise it has just been me. It's interesting that people have...

How to Make Spray Rails
The plans for the FS 19 call for 2 inch wide Spray Rails along the chine. There is no detail about the construction however. How have people made them in the past? Are they glued and screwed or just glued and filleted and covered with glass? I have done some internet searches and found premade PVC S...
