"SOB will sustain a torpedo"

:lol: He's not kidding. Saw it a few times being built and it's as strong as a tank. Pity the poor oyster reef it hits.

Pete - just went through my receipts. I'm embarrassed to say how much epoxy I used, but it was essentially double what the plans called for, not including the console. And I made a real effort to not be as wasteful on this build as the LM18. Hoping to weigh it this weekend, but not looking forward to how heavy it will be. Had intended for this to be a light build!

I think you'll find the LM18 to be a walk in the park after already building your big boat. Should be fun.
