No Foot Can - I put up these images to show that it is not all work all the time. The Waveblaster and Superjet get me as far away from work as possible.

Cat - The Family cruiser. Just rebuilt the port side motor. Very interesting to work on the 4-stroke. If you have the time, learn to work on an engine. It can teach you a ton about mass-production and assembly. Very relevant to ID in the real world.

Start- 94 Yamaha Waveblaster Restoration Project - Stripped hull, ready for lower hull modification. Engine bay strengthen on motor plates and seams. If you are over 190 lbs, and jump a Waveblaster in the surf enough, the lower hull will break in front of the transom. I split my first boat, and so I decided to give a rework a try with my own design. Picked up this hull ( minus motor and electronics ) for $500. Learned a lot about fiberglass on this project. Hey, I already knew how to sand material....

94 Waveblaster Rework - Previous owner had put dial exhausts on this boat ( why ??? ). Removed the guts and repaired the hull.

94 Waveblaster Rework - Transom is ready for glass. Used bluefoam for support structure of the fiberglass.

94 Waveblaster Rework - Mid-glass image. I did several layers and fill with resin. Should make a nice strong tail for the boat. My luck, it will break somewhere else.
