S&G: Spring Run - first time build - pic *Pic*

I want to thank everyone on this forum who has shared ideas with me as I build my first strip boat. I have learned so much from the sharing.

I decided it was time to share what my Spring Run is going to look like now that I'm getting near the final stretch in the build. The pic attached shows the deck sitting on the hull shortly after glassing the insides of both. Since this pic was taken, I've cut out hatches, built hatch lid supports using glass lay-up, and fabricated a carbon fiber coaming. I'm hoping to mate the hull and deck this weekend and will have some new pics to share.

Thanks again for all the support.....
