Thats quite an offer. That will be a cool boat :up:

Hmmm....I missed this old thread the first go-round too....I seem to be doing that alot lately. Yes, Lynn did do an awesome job. I was probably 50-60% into the rip out and decided I didn't want to have to patch up holes all over the bottom because of my potential carelessness with large power tools so Lynn finished it up for me. And I'm glad he did too because it was a mess...layup on the starboard side was garbage...no saturation...hell, no resin for that matter.

So what ever happened to this Bicentennial boat???..since we revived this thread and all. :mrgreen:

I bought that white viper from him. He was waiting on weather and funds to continue.
