Hi Charlie,

No we're not engaged in a commercial enterprise. The overall cost to build the mold is relatively low. We expect the materials should come out under $1000. That should produce a mold that if built properly should make around 100 boats before needing any repair. We each plan on making a couple of boats, be it fiberglass, kevlar, carbon or a combination of each.

: You have given us an excellent overview the mold building process.
: You can hardly be going through all these difficult steps just to make a
: single hull. Are you and your friends engaged in a commercial enterprize?
