And buy the real 3M 6100 half mask respirators. You will need them for resin layup. Don't break into the organic vapor cartridges. But the P100 pink filters. They are made for auto body work. Way better than what you are wearing.

Got the boat squared up, cut the cabin off the cap, and glassed in the transom. I used a product called celtec and it is an awesome product to work with. Its a little heavy so dont think im gonna use it for the rest of the boat. I believe im gonna get some of that corelite and give it a whirl.

I am planning on doing a hermco bracket and am trying to figure some stuff and need to know the height from the keel to the platform. I am gonna make a transom door and wanna make sure it is above the height of the transom! If anyone has an idea it would be appreciated!

I thought some one told me that the Hermco bracket mounted 21" above the keel but Im not a 100 percent sure. Someone that has one can chime in and confirm this. I read his mounting instructions once when I was figuring the dimensions for mine when I built it and I think that measurement was right but cant find where I saved the sheet with the info to verify it.

So how high should I raise floor to have a fully self bailing boat with a little room to spare. With a hermco bracket of course and 30gal transom livewell? I plan on making a custom gafuel tank to go as far forward as possible and move everything I can forward to make it happen. If this is not feasible then I guess I could handle a leaning post/livewell
