Surf'in Safari
Afishin, It broke my heart to see you cut that Safari up, but it looks like you will have a spectacular SeaCraft when you get done. Good Job! Remember, they squirt pretty good without too much power so don't hang something goofy on the back and move the "Center of Bouyancy".

Lol I know I upset a couple guys on csc and rightfully so. Guys on here have been a big help and I've enjoyed the whole itchy process. It's been quite a journey and am starting to get excited to see it looking like a boat again!

Looking good! It will soon be time to fair all the surfaces true, then the real fun begins... lol
One question, what brand / type of material are you using for the floor & bulkheads? The white stuff? I assume it is a high density foam of sorts?

It's called celtec. I get it at fiberglass supply depot in Ft pierce fl. The guy highly recommends it and it's really nice stuff to work with.

Anyone have any good tips on how to flip the boat upside down. My thoughts were to use a buddies crane. Should be do able with a swivel/pulley on the rear 2 ubolts and just a single strap on the Front u bolt. Then spin it by hand. Seems like it would be pretty easy.

Go on YouTube, they show many people flipping Custom Carolina boats and you can watch how they do it. Some use tires and some just cranes with two cables and hooks. The bad thing is once you get it to the point it will balance and want to roll it over past that point it will want to flip over fast. You almost need one crane/lift to lift it up and pull it over and a second one to catch the weight and then lower it down.
Watch these back yard guys do it: They have rocking back ground music too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8DRAGn8dfg This one is my favorite one from some time back: This is the best way to do it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh1KZgGoe08
