    I'd be wiling to bet that through the years there have been a good number of very popular successful boats that have similar hull traits.

    ADTECH Plastic Systems First , might i recomend prepping the areas of concern using # 36 grit and using this filler to fill in the low's , and might i mention that the general rule of thumb is ..................... if the area of concern is high / sand , and if it is low fill .

    Absolutely agree, if you wanna go fast, and handle the best, make the bottom perfect. Since you did the new stringers and transom, unfortunately kind of in the wrong sequence, I'd fix it. Especially since it's upside down.

    Artie, Offshore Ginger, is one of the sharpest guys around on bottom work and glass. He will not steer you wrong.

    I think he will need to know what kind of glass the bottom was redone with from your last guy. Artie?

    Oh, that is close to the truth though. I cannot look at the bottom of a boat with those small pics and tell them what kind of glass work needs to be done. What kind of glass to use. Or even if it is worth the coat. (Because you guys know a lot more than I do by far.) So, I can only steer in the right direction, not even pretend to be any kind of an expert. I can say I wouldn't put the money into redoing the glass if he wasn't positive the stringers and transom were good though.
