Well, finally back to work on the Viper. It's been almost a year and a half collecting workshop dust. I recently acquired a fiberglass windshield reproduction from AFR. Got the old cracked unit out with advice from Cody and working on getting the bent frame back into shape.

It is time to get the hull off of the trailer. I plan to finish some of the work on the transom and splashwell, then it will get flipped over to rework and blueprint the bottom. I liked the pics of the rolling cradle that were in Jeff Roth's post when he had his bottom reworked and decided to build one myself. I got some great ideas from Jeff on how he would build one and that's what I built.

Got the hull on the rolling cradle. Had to adjust the bunks a bit and got it to sit well. When it comes time to flip it over, I'll just readjust the bunks to fit accordingly. The hull is at a good working height and the cradle is heavy enough that I'll be able to rig it with the engine prior to going back on the trailer. Starting to get pumped!!

That's cool Cody! Did Jeff let you take his out for a shakedown and allow you to get bit by the Viper? Thanks for your help getting the windshield out of the old frame.

I know it isn't done yet, but I never get sick of the lines on these boats. Great pics, and nice work on that new jig/ rolling kart.
