Hey all, went to the dump today and got rid of 370lbs of transom, stringer debris and galley items, I would say there is at least another 200lbs left to be removed and disposed of...

Yep
 
Hey, a buddy of mine, i think, picked up the Commander :) its going to Kelowna as far as i know...:)
 
No motors or legs,was being prepped for a pod but backed off. It looked good in the pictures,should be a simple job if there's no rot to deal with.What are the odds on that?
 
I paid 9k for mine with no engines and I thought I got a good deal. It was in pretty good shape though. If that one isn’t rotten it’s a steal. Just need another 50k to get it ready for the water haha.
 
Want to save money on Epoxy and cloth? Ultralux Plastics in Richmond near the casino.
I was told that it is not advised to use epoxy over resin, maybe it's different now?
Nice work!
 
Kool thx for the info, actually it’s ill advised to used resin over epoxy but epoxy over resin is fine.

Polyesters vs epoxy...

Well hello to all... hope everyone is doing well!

Update: I just spent a week working in the Vancouver area and had an opportunity to run around and collect my pre-purchases which include the command bridge, 2106 scotty's, prop touch-up at Percision Propeller and even bought an unplanned 2015 Road Runner 6500 capacity trailer with elec/hydr disc breaks.
