Omega1234 Posted May 8, 2015 Author #63 Posted May 8, 2015 Hi everyone Many thanks for your comments and Likes! Tonight, I managed to plank one side of the hull. At this early stage, the planks are rough and require filling and sanding, but it's a start. The hull's really starting to take shape now. Please see the photos below.

I then put a coat of putty on the hull, which will be sanded once again. I also took the hull off the jig, which is sort of a milestone. Here are the photos.

Omega1234 Posted May 10, 2015 Author #75 Posted May 10, 2015 Hello and thanks Ben, Bob, Pete, Cog and IMack and everyone else for your Likes and comments. Yep, Symphony's coming along nicely. IMack -the putty I'm using is Tamiya putty, which is a really nice product because it dries quickly and sands to a nice smooth finish. Bob-good comment about the keel. When you say that you thought the profile looked 'bad', is that because the hull is basically a large canoe shaped hull with a shallow draft? It did actually look odd to me as well, but it's growing on me. Perhaps it'll look better when I put the large centreboard keel on? Cheers and all the best, everyone!

Omega1234 Posted May 11, 2015 Author #80 Posted May 11, 2015 Hi everyone After a few rounds of puttying, then sanding, puttying, then sanding, etc, I decided I needed to get some paint on Symphony's hull. So, look what happened! I decided to paint the hull black. At least that way, if there were any imperfections in the hull's surface, what better way to show them up than by gloss paint? Anyhow, I'm not sure if I will stick with the black hull, but that can be decided later on. In the meantime, pls enjoy the photos below.

Expect nothing less from you. Nick Hi Nick Hah! Bat Mobile, indeed! I wish. Nice analogy though, because I gotta admit, that I'm also really surprised at just how sleek and powerful the hull is. Thanks for stopping by and please visit often. All the best.

cog Posted May 11, 2015 #87 Posted May 11, 2015 Patrick, Nice glossy finish, and yes, I agree with your remark that it's a bit sombre ... On the other hand, it's a nice contrast colour if you keep the interior bright ... Dimitris71, IgorSky and Omega1234 3 Quote Carl "Desperate affairs require desperate measures."

popeye the sailor Posted May 13, 2015 #90 Posted May 13, 2015 you know Patrick........the idea of the Bat Boat has been one of my thoughts for quite a while now. yea........I know........leave it up to me it's not the type of hull to do it to........so your safe actually, it's not a bad idea to give it a shot of paint. it will help in filling in the tiny pits and minute lines......so when you give it the color coat, you'll get a smoother finish. I like to use primer. she looking very sweet!
