He does a parimeter weld around the whole cone and only uses minimal epoxy filler . Then he paints with imron. It looks amazing.

Sorry I missed the unveiling. You must be gawking at it like a brand new 80" plasma TV.

I recieved a late night call from Mitch...he was lounging on the deck of the 34 Soup Bowl...(something about him being King of the World....I dunno)...so I wouldn't expect a coherent response from him for 2 maybe 3 days....

Yes I suspect that this will be both the beginning and end of transient boaters welcome in Owen Sound's inner harbour :)

I did not even see these new comments.. lol.

Ken.. I had the skeg welded(very small half inch crack) by a very gifted friend of mine. I cut off the extended torque tamer and we built it up with weld and made the base of a torque tamer all the way up to the bottom of the bullet. I know this is a no-no... But I frankly don't buy the welded shit anymore if you are running it the entire height of the skeg. Take this as a warning... If you're scared of my skeg.... Either don't ride with me or stay clear of my right hand side when running. I can find no stories of people having a welded skeg snap off and cause a mess.. I can however find lots of stories of unwelded skegs breaking.
I ran about 70 miles last night with 4 people in the boat at atleast 60mph and topped out a little over 90mph and the skeg is still perfect. Call me what you want.. But that's what I have to say.

I'll take pictures.. It looks nice.

I call you all kinds of shit and it has nothing to do with your welded skeg....You know I sell welded aluminum boats ALL day long..luckily hulls don't get beat on :roll: .

You know my stand on repairing a skeg....keep on truckin' dude.
