I'm posting this on behalf of my brother...I take NO credit for the project...other than picking up the boat, providing the place to work, aquiring the material list, aquiring the material, providing the contacts for trusted advice, laminating, mixing core...and my general encouraging manor..
Alright...you're getting the whole deal here so we'll start with some history...what little we do know.
The boat was brought to Canada buy a local guy as a project. He spent some serious $$ changing the boat from a race boat to a pleasure boat. Removing the bulkheads from the cabin area and having structure for seats/v-berth installed. The transom, floor and stringers were replaced at that time as were the fuel tanks. The story goes that as they were moving the boat out of the glass shop it was dropped (hard) and the resulting damage killed the project. It appears that the impact delaminated that stressed cracked the pad are of the boat. I spoke to the PO and he had no idea about core but had already spent too much to tear it all apart again...makes sense. So the boat sat...and sat...and basically was given to a friend of ours for the storage bill. Eventually due to some health reasons our friend had to sell his business/property and the velocity. That's when we entered the story.
I went to look at it and after much searching we figured out that it was actually a Velocity...but with a different windscreen. This is how I found the boat...it had probably 3' of water in it!!
and will Mitchie be skiing behind it when it goes for the record on 5 gallon bay
