Nothing like a new bottom for Christmas, right? (haha)

I'd guess at about a 1/16 ????
It's difficult to tell.
You can't say that I didn't start from
the bottom up on this boat!

I know of other people that have had there
boats done at this shop that are very well pleased
and can testify of increase in performance.
I'm not the first Fountain hull that has been
blueprinted there.
There are two more Fountain's waiting to be
blueprinted after mine is finished.
The guy must be doing something right?
I don't claim to know everything about what is being
done in the process.
Just trying to post something that I thought would
be of interest.

Also, is 1/16" enough to make a noticable difference on a pleasure boat? I don't know, just asking. Looks great, just knowing it is flat makes it faster to me.
