Nice job. At R2K1 you had an idea, and now you have a boat! From the pic it looks like the kneehooks are separate from and glued to the coaming. From a purely artistic standpoint would like to build the kneehooks and coaming out of CF as one piece. How would you go about doing that? Hot glue a male mold under the deck and drape the cloth over it? Maybe this is a job for vacuum bagging?
