Heck yea Jon! Is that how wide the boat will be?! She’s got some beam on her! So excited to watch this build finally get off the ground! I’ve got the itch to start mine again too. I saw you have a YouTube set up. Are you going to document your build there too? I’ve been thinking I might do that. I ...

Hi Jonlits, Sorry my question kinda hijacked your thread there for a little bit. I hope your build continues. Can’t wait to see some more pictures and progress! Josh No worries at all, my man.
