If a 15 foot dory weighs 325 lbs a 17 foot boat is 1.13 times longer.
That scale factor can be used to morph blue print dimensions up or down Weight too? It must be.
This new hull got pinched between the trailer wheel fenders. I had to shim the the trailer bed 4" up to get it to work (1.5" in front with a 6x6 in back).
This looks promising.
If it does not work out I'll copp. But boy it sure looks like it does and will.
One way to make SOFT lures is to make a mold, and then to pour in hot iiquid Plastisoi.
There is another way.
Use scissors to snip a kitchen sponge (or memory foam) to any desired shape. Now use a popsicle stick to squeeze in mold making goo.
Liquid latex and/or a polyurethane mix, both seem to work.
You can use a razor blade to bury strategically placed beads or split shot.
You end up with a soft but durable lure body--of any sizi or shape--without a mold.
Want a diving bill? Add that with.super glue BEFORE squeezing in the mold making resin.
