greg, he was referring to selling 1 or 2 on ebay, to establish a value. then seeing if the price would support building for profit. not running a business thru links........ the little bit i do know derrick, i believe he would do things the 'right' way, if the response warranted setting this up as a business, imho.

Ouch... Public humiliation. I just not to long ago let my membership expire. I have sold and bought a few boats here, also sold alot of good parts(my own personal parts)
I have not sold one of these hulls yet by choice. I was stating that If I did, I was thinking about selling one of the first on ebay to get a ballpark on a hull cost.
Greg, If that's what It takes to post my hulls here then I would be building these for free to cover the vendor fee. I make these on the side which Is not much at all.
I have been working at this for a few years now a little at a time and I have only stacked up a total of three hulls. I have spent many of coin just to get here. I lost a few grand with a cad guy and no good results came from that Hell, I even lost the specs/measurements we took on that deal... Total material cost so far have been ridiculous. I then started from scratch again with nothing but a few pics to build by eye(allready sold my last two full size STVs).
My point Is In all reality It would take alot of sales to even think about a profit. This Is not and will not be a mass production project. I started this project because I like to build only a certian few hulls that strike my Interest NOT, for the money... Because there really Is none.
