Sponsons
The sponsons are assembled in a specific
order for a reason. It is not the fastest way,
but it’s the only way it can be done right.
Gather all of the parts for the right sponson.
The right sponson holds the turn fin, so it
has dowels in it,
Grab the right foam sponson.
Test fit the 3/8 inch wood dowels in the 4
rear holes. Also test fit the 2 brass tubes.
They should be a nice fit, without slop.
Prepare the sponson inside and outside
plates by lightly sanding the edges.
Mix up some 30 minute epoxy, and coat the
inside of the sponson plates.
Also put some epoxy on the brass boom
