Going to start prepping the inside of the hull. @tzane do you think I should remove those rear pump mounts and all the 5200? or would I be fine glassing over and around the factory 5200 on the inside?
Looks very good. I went with the carterb rocker nose to keep it more simple for me but I like how yours utilizes the stock bond rail. I may do a slight rockered angle cut on the rear similar to yours. I probably will start with chop strand as you did to build up some thickness and start laying...
Thought about it but it would be a pain to reach from that area and glass the inside I would rather just cut the rear upper deck and have it easier to be seen and reached. I cut out the foam today that I am going to glass over and began shaping it in.
Yea I've only used biax and cloth on this ski so far. Just saw some others using chopped so that's why I was wondering. Probably going to layup a panel but when I put the panel on the ski would I just glass and wrap it around all the edges of the ski since I wouldn't have an access hole
So she's Rockered and flat decked. I chopped 3 inches off the rear. Now I'm looking for some ideas on how to seal it up. I've seen other people just lay cardboard inside and lay on Aton of chopped mat and polyester resin to have a quick thick layup. Or should I cut an access hole through the top...
So got bored and decided to flat deck it and shorten the rear 4 inches. It was already fun with the rocker can't wait to ride it with an exposed pump. Heres some pictures. I know before I started this project I was lost as too how much/what kind of glass to use. I ended of backing the hole for...
Good to hear! Definetely going to go through with shortening the rear do you have any tips on that? Is it better to go with the two stages of the chop? Trying to decide whether to chop it flat or rocker the rear to match the front with carters kit. I mainly just chase boats but wanna throw some...
Any updates on what happened what this ski? Loved this build it was what made me rocker my b1. Now I kind of want to shorten it and make it as small and light as possible.
93 b1 61x/61x blowsion head. Stock pipe. Front carteb rocker. Just finished the rocker figure I would start a build thread for me ski as I will be doing a lot of stuff to it over winter. Can't believe how much more fun it is to ride Rockered I have a cut stock d plate in the back and this thing...
