The mighty power....

...of displacement, gently lifts the boat from it's mould.

Mr Gilley captures the moment.

One 31'10" Phantom...

...hull hanging in it's new home for the next month or so.

Doesn't look too bad at all, all things considered.

It’s a bit wonky where you extended it at the rear, Jon; you can tell it’s a splash and not an original SB Phantom.

Optical illusion

there isn't a kink, the stringers are 8" tall, but as they run back into the engine compartment through the firewall, they drop down to 6" to make room for the motor cradles.
They do the same in my 28. (only more so, as with side by side motors on 33" centres, they fall directly under the motor)

You can see in this pic.

Out of interest when is the planned launch date, as RB isn't that far away and there looks like a lot of work still to be done.

I base this on having watched other boat builders in the Poole area do there stuff.

Cheers

Mark
