This boat was sitting on the side of a house for about 9 years before i got it. after picking the boat up i went testing for the frist time at Lake Irvin with Ron Hill, He told me i could go racing at Long Beach,CA. Went i got home i completly striped the whole boat and painted it and putt new decals on it. I went to the Long Beach Sprint Nationals on August 11,12 2007 I got 3rd overall for my first race ever. It has been a long time before this boat was ever actully striped and down to bare wood. I started striping the boat last week and i got it down to the bare wood. I found that there was alot of cracks and openings in the hull. Well I call Erine Dawe to find out what resin to use. He told me Epoxy Resin, so i bought some and in about the next couple weeks i willl be resining my boat and filling all the holes. I took pictures during the whole thing.
