It just keeps getting better and better. Keep up the good work and I will keep reading and drooling. Nice trout, not something we have this far south, but it must have been fun.

Tim I will try to get a couple of pieces of scrap stock left over from another project and shoot some pics of what I am going to try to do.

Jacques or Joel--Bow Transon of GF-16

Is it possible to take the bow transom on a GF-16, take the top 5" of it, cut at a 45 and reverse the top and glue, then make a second transom piece (cut to fit inside and with appropriate changes in size to fit the original hull dimensions) and do the same thing to it. Glue it together, add kn...

Tim, It looks like a splash is imminent. Great looking work. I have been following the build and have learned many things (from you, Larry and YD) that I will apply to mine that should start in the next week or so. Finally have all of my stuff, but family time comes but once when the kids are young....

YD Sounds like a lot of good advice coming from the builder's gallery. I am going to build it fairly close to plan, but I am working on some exceptions that I have seen some of the group do. I like Larry's lifting rails and longer runners ideas, so those are going to go in. There are still some othe...
