Nola OD18

[Salty F17]

Got my epoxy over the weekend and the hardner bottle came damaged has a small hole at the bottom of the bottle it was leaking in the box but I Started dry fitting panels and bait pick up hope to finish the upper panels and get every thing glued together over the next couple days

Salty, Reid is calling you now!! Jeff

Looking good man! So nice to see another OD 18 coming together. Sucks about the hardener. The profile looks spot on.

There must have been some real animals handling your epoxy I would be hard to knock a hole in a bottle through the packing. I hope that does not slow you down too much. The dory is taking shape

The boat looks great Salty, its coming together really quickly. I'm enjoying watching another OD take shape.

It's been a real hassle with ups down here the past week

I screwed the upper panels on for a dry fit .finally can see the full size of the hull now I can lay everything out to see where I want stuff ,this sure is different building the OD18 over the C17 I've only use two tools the whole time to get to this point my Marita sander and my worx circle hand saw ,she does look pretty

Does the sheer drop off at the bow or is it an illusion?

I got confused when I saw this thread and I thought you were building that other boat.

Looks like two? Maybe you finished the other one?

That od18, where you plan to run it?

Just curious about that bayou life n fishing n stuff.

I saw a special on tv the other day about swamp rat bounties in La. A different place for sure.

U must be talking about the 2nd pic no the sheer does not droop at all im standing on a table when I took that pic if you look at the 1st pic Im sitting parallel to the boat unless u mean the style line then yes it tapers towards the rear of the boat ,and I already build the c17 the link to that build is at the bottom of the post ,and I'll be fishing inshore mostly the southeast area of La ,u must be talking about the big ass nutria rat it is a invasive species to louisiana not my cup of tea though lol just fish here and mybe a gator every once in a while
