Real wish list

In no particular order, and just for the hell of it ...

  • 1/4" plywood, ACX grade (hard to find inland, but it does exist) - this is basically marine-grade plywood without the "marine-grade!" markup

  • 1/8" luan plywood

  • 1-1/2" bolts, stainless steel, 6 ga., 8 ga., and 1/4" diam. With nylon locknuts.

  • Stainless steel dress washers for 1/4" hafts

  • CPES: clear penetrating epoxy sealant (any size)

  • White/warm white primer for one-part above-water yacht enamel (1-1/2 qt)

  • Drill bits (standard sizes) that will go through stainless or fiberglass more than a couple times

  • Wet/dry sandpaper, 600, 800, and clearcoat grade (~2000), ~3-5 sheets each

  • 50' 6 to 8 ga. two-strand tinned copper wiring (green and white, given the choice) with 4 pr shrink-wrap 3/8" terminals.
  • Standard, normal carb-cleaning kit, like from an auto parts store.

  • 10-20 hours' labor, mostly minimally skilled.
