Yes looking forward to the next step your boat is the reason I'm doing what I'm doing just trying to fig out how to change it around from yours a lil bitRmarsh wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 7:06 am Hi Salty: Great to see another C17 getting started, and that you and your Dad will be working on it together. I got a lot of help from my son when we built ours.......he mixed just about every batch of epoxy for it, and we spent many hours together in the shop just pondering...and anticipating.
Your posts and pictures will be part of a journal that others like myself will follow, and that you will look back on with pride and joy!

Re: C17 in the bayou
So we added the Motorwell sides on did some mock stringers made a mistake cutting the depth in the molds had to take a piece of ply to raise the stringers to the right height and that's why you use the cheaper ply folks lol o well that mistake won't happen again went back an checked all measurements to make sure everything is right just forgot to measure the stringers height first before we cut the molds

Looking good!
