Mach II, Part 2

I was sure that I was onto something, what with cutting the boat in half and adding a transom.
I thought to myself, "this is going to be good. I'm finally going to have the boat I want. Small enough to transport, and with a transom that I can add a rudder to, so I have some ability to steer."

My plan was to sand it all the way down to the wood, all the way around, and then re-glass/epoxy it from scratch, and do a cleaner job.

I worked and I worked.


And I sanded and I sanded.



Over and over, day after day, sanding belt after sanding belt.

And, you know what? I wasn't getting anywhere.
Not anywhere useful, anyway.

So, you know what I did?
I scrapped it.
The whole thing.

Time to start fresh.
A [new] Boat of My Own.
