It kind of reminds me of your vulture, I moved the dash forward 11".

I finished the bow late last night and worked on the back end for a while tonight. There is going to be a couple angles and I just am not seeing a good way to make them come together. I have a feeling I will try something then cut it out as soon as see it done.

Thanks guys. I like working with fiberglass because if you screw up you can always cut it out and replace it, now if wood were only that easy.

A little more progress last night, I have a meeting today but will be busting on it tomorrow and hopefully finish the back of the sides. Then comes the center section and rear fairing.

I'm thinking blue or silver for the deck, I won't decide until the last minute then probably change my mind again.

This was enough work, I couldn't imagine trying to pull a mold off it.

I have been making some progress, slowly but some. I even think if i can keep at about 4 hours a night I might have the top side done for saturday, I will still need to add some braces under it.
