Hi all. Building Devlin's Godzilla 25

I added some build pictures of the progress so far. I've had a lot of fun building it, although I'm two months behind on my self-imposed schedule. Here's my blog address: http://boatbuild.wordpress.com/

I'm looking for pictures of other Godzilla's, either the 22 or the 25, other than the ones on Devlin's site. Anyone have some? Shots of other small tug-style boats would be appreciated too.

New Picture showing progress...

Just added a new picture to my photo album showing the interior 1/2 primed and about ready for paint.  On the interior I am going to use a good grade of exterior gloss house paint to save money.  I have been told by many people that they have used general house paints in their boats with no undue problems like peeling etc.

 

I will still be using marine paint on the exterior hull.  I have a friend who runs a lumber yard and will see if I can get a good price on some clear pine for the decking and seats.  Otherwise I may have to settle for "better" grade pine from the local yards.  this shoestring budget thing is for the birds...

VOLUNTEER WANTED

I'm looking for some volunteer help to build a "SHELLBACK" dinghy from a Wooden Boat Store kit. It is the sailing version. I will supply the kit and all materials required to a competent builder. I would like it finished by mid to late 2008. Some one close to Ohio would be preferred do to the transporation.

 

Anyone interested can contact me thru the group or at my e-mail address.

Good Shot

Ok Kreuz,

 

Three and a half years later we have a very elegant lady. Compare this to some of the earlier photos I uploaded. Wow!!

 

She sure is fun. But we still have a little more to do on the inside....
