Xcelerator Boatworks 48' express build

Has Biffle named his boat yet? WE want to know!

The 36’ remains nameless…
Meanwhile …the 48’ sees the light of day for the first time

Looks great so far!

We do have “racks on racks” of clamps!

What adhesive are you using to bond the wood together?

I hear Carnival Cruise Lines is looking for some good quality boats… Maybe you could hook 'em up.

We use epoxy resin thickened with cabosil to form a glue

“Fish On”

We will pull the boat outside and use a couple of cranes to lift and flip the boat. The pictures arent showing up on my computer now for some reason. can you guys see them?

That thing has got more plywood on it than most FHA houses.:sunglasses:

Planking is finished. Now we are shaping, sanding, and getting ready for trim tab recesses, bow thruster, and spray rails.

Beast!

Needs some updates!!

We are currently waiting on a back ordered thruster tube but ready to glass any day!

What ever became of the 26’ you built in your garage?
