Justin is building his Pro Vee in Bewdley, Ontario, Canada.
|
|
"I am thinking of powering it with a yamato 302," Justin says. "I am really hoping I can break the 60 mph mark at some point."
|
|
"Plans have been great so far!"
"Its been 3 days of building.. ( a couple shorten due to work) but here is some progress."
A lot of progress, I'd say. This project is moving right along.
|
|
"Found a couple more days to work on the boat."
|
|
"Some patience planing the bevels...
|
|
"... and now bottom planking of plywood has started. Soon its going to be time to decide on a finish."
|
|
"The bottom pretty much finished, just waiting for possible fiberglass/gel coat."
|
|
Bottom planking done, ready for the pad.
|
|
Right side up. Job one is to remove the temporary bulkhead between the coamings.
|
|
Lookin' good.
|
|
Looks like some insulation board installed for flotation. I've tested this stuff and find that a cubic foot will support 65 lbs. The two-part pour foam claims to support 60 lbs.
|
|
The interior of the hull is painted. Appears to be just about ready for the deck.
|
|
Deck completed.

|
Next, she goes upside down again for fiberglass.
|
|
And then the deck gets a coat of epoxy resin.
|
|
Finishing starts with some primer...
|
|
... followed by some beautiful topcoats.

More work on the finish. Almost done.
|
|
And then it's on to the cockpit. Wow, carpet lining. Nice touch.
