Re: HELP!!!!!!!!!Somethings growing........
Based on your build and review, I bought the plans for the Sabalo. I have the plans now, but since we had a recent addition to the family, I don't have the time to start it yet.

Re: HELP!!!!!!!!!Somethings growing........
Ventured out to my beer drinking table and noticed something had appeared again
After some thought I decided as the weather is still good I can drink outside and maybe encourage this growth on my table

It would seem Wadfish has a shorter cockpit than Sabalo

Mike its the 15-27 I tried to talk her into the 15-32
But she said that due to her short arms she would prefer a narrower boat
Got the cockpit framing glued up today

Re: HELP!!!!!!!!!Somethings growing........
After browsing the site I was intrigued by Aloha Dans mirage drive housing
I kinda thought this could be adapted to scuppers and decided to run with it

scuppers laid up out of ply and shaped to hull

Test fit


Glue up from bow

View from stern
These are scuppers for cockpit... ones in footwell are a definite go'er smaller ones in seat area I will drill out only if needed......... blocking will always be there
One of Brides design demands is a dry bum
As you can see shortened under seat stowage area so things can be reached.......Bride has short arms
