Default New Design & Build SSV 565 deep vee

My latest project on the quiet LOL,well been buiding it inbetween making moulds and moulding etc of other projects
purely experimental design and something different
Im not a massive lover of deep vees but really wanted to have ago at this 1 for while and push my building skills,and this 1 has certainly been a brain job haha
Had to and still making some changes as i progress with build and hoping to finish all construction very soon and start prepping for coatings
Size: 56.5" L x 14" W

Can't wait to see how this one turns out. If it's anything like the gas cat you just built it's gonna be top notch. I really like the looks of it. Keep us posted on your progress.
