I havent given up yet! :lol:
Went around all the seams to smooth them out and got the sealer coat of resin on the underside. Has been a bit cool lately so only doing resin work when the temps are good, have got a second coat on the underside and a coat on the top since the pic. Will be painting the whole hull so not too worried about the timber look.

Hey Oz!

Your "batmoboat" looks really good. You are "thinking out of the box" with your own design, and I like that soo much!
Now don't move too fast. Take your time and get the finish and hardware right.
I will follow your fine project.

Cheers! :cheer:

Thanks Woodie! :)
People always tell me Im a little different! :woohoo:
For me a rigger style build with a hydro style look seemed a natural combination.
Still wondering what it would run like with a Zen and waterpropped, one day maybe. :huh:
Plenty of room as the tub is 6" wide inside, would just have to make a cowl to cover it.

So have finally got back onto this project after finishing other things off.
Have done a little since the last update!

The cockpit will look a little something like this! :D
