Xcelerator 19' Flats Boat Build

Postal

Nice work!

xcelerator

Thanks everyone! Glad you like it!! We have a couple rounds of fairing in the books. Blocked the first coat of Alexseal 328 and spread some 202 filler yesterday. We are now ready to block the 202 and spray some more 328. After that it will get the spray rails installed.

The amount of work you do in a short period of time is unreal, there can't be a single minute wasted...amazing. I would love to be a fly on the wall and watch you guys work...as mentioned above "True Craftsmen" without a doubt.

PS: do you guys rest?

More pictures soon, please. You guys.....****. Really?!?!

xcelerator

Thanks Guys, your comments really do mean a lot!! Here are some more pics!
Sprayed the 19' with 302 tonight. Nice to see it in one bright color! Going to block it tomorrow and add some fillets to the spray rails then let it bake in the sun for a few days before the final few rounds of fairing.

Its amazing how "quickly" you guys blast through all that work. Only a month in and its almost a completed, painted hull...from scratch. Its really fun to watch.

This boat would look SO cool painted to match the foam colors...

I just don't know how you guys do all that....so skilled and talented! Thanks for the updates, we appreciate it! This is more addicting than my girlfriend was in her younger years...and less troublesome! Keep up the excellent work!

Flipped the 19' yesterday. After the jig was removed, two guys could easily lift the boat off the base and walk with it!!!

Longhaul

Unreal.

Update!!! You can't make us drool over your boats and then not give us anything for a long time! Not fair not fair!

What happened??????

Sorry guys! Been working on another project

Pescatoral Pursuit

Wow. It looks big.

westduvalangler

The 19' must be collecting dust these days. . .

kln

Time to make some progress.

westduvalangler

Still fun to watch. . . . even if we have to wait for it!

kln

We will try and keep the updates coming!

xcelerator

A little more progress!

Backlash

under the sole rod storage / rod tubes?
Pretty trick.

kln

Yes rod storage, fuel tank access and it will also store the trolling motor and a power pole!

This will be the hatch for the sole. It will be lifted by an electric actuator

westduvalangler

A nice touch!

FS Dan

Looking forward to this build, will be interesting to see how you tackle the console rigging.
Also interested in the stowable powerpole, How do you deal with the hydraulics?

CMD- console rigging is going to be a little tricky but with some proper planning should turn out nice! We are using the c-zone digital switching system which will cut down on a lot of wiring. We are using a new electric power pole which will simplify stowing it.
