Now let's see how picky you are with priming and painting! :lol:
I'm gonna try my best not to be to critical. I'm getting tired.

Nope, I've seen the builds. I doubt I'll make anyone look bad.

Unless you literally start shooting your hull with bird shot, Lil Bit's work boat finish will be far far below your finish.
My already completed 'Lil Bit'. A Martens Goosen V12 set up to sail me to the fishing holes.
Currently working on making a Helms 24 our coastal cruiser.

Alright I'm ready for Monday! Castors are mounted and I can push her around with my finger tips!
I have a bad case of glass itch. Amazing how much sanding dust gets under the boat. :lol:

You made me feel bad looking at how clean your work area is. I went out and spent 2 hours with the shop vac cleaning my shop. I know it had to have done some good but another 48 hours would not hurt :help:
Say what you want but I am not buying you will slack off on the finish work at this point. You spent way too much time doing the fairing for that to happen.

Field Day. Getting the work area cleaned up so I can prime and paint. Don't know when I can get the primer on though. Both of my girls start driving school tomorrow so I have to be limo driver.

Picture for Fuzz. :lol:
