13' Bullet 130 Rebuild & Repower

what is the purpose of the blue painters tape in #297????

The cap still needs to come off so we taped it up so the resin wouldn't stick to the transom, we used foam to wedge between the splashwell and transom to shape it so water will drain into the middle. I have to take the cap off to cut the old splash well off and glass it from the bottom and drill the holes in the knees for water to drain and a hole in the transom for water to escape., I also have to add some wire guides for all the cables and install the gussets. I will still be flipping the boat over again to finish fairing it and prime it then the cap will get glassed on permanently, at that time the back will be glasses to the transom and knees etc. All that is a lot easier with the cap off so it will be permanently glued then glassed after all that is done.

Gorilla brought me the beautiful seat he did up for me back, and my custom 11.5gal baffled fuel tank came, just have to make up the seat brackets and the feet for the fuel cell.

Couple pics. Freshly cleaned up and rinsed off. The bottom still needs glass. But we're adding coosa plugs where the bolts will be. So it'll get finished when the mounts are figured out.

Who made the fuel tank for you? I like the cylinder type for my project.

Got a few things done today cut out old splashwell, sanded new one, filled gaps with putty, mocked up wire Chase/interior cap supports, glued bow eye coosa backing plate for extra strength and cut drainage holes in knees for any water that would run back on Port or starboard sides.

Gusset pads glued in.

I was able to get the gussets themselves glued down, just need to tab them in one of these days.
