re: Super Skeeter Rebuild Thread (Pic Heavy)

Minor update (sorry for the pic size, first time using imgur)
Filled the old rivet holes with toothpicks
Sanded them down after the initial primer coat and filled them with 5200
Made a little scupper-ish thing out of PVC to run my fuel line through, it'll be covered in fabric shrink wrap so it'll look clean
Cut out some logos original to the boat, they still need some grinding and a few more holes drilled but they came out solid
What's left:
-sending floor/deck template to buddy so they can cut the teak (rub rail included)
-weld up the sponsons
-find someone that can bend 2" aluminum pipe (muffler shop?) for poling platform and grab bar
-install the vinyl wrap and then hardware
-order carbon fiber to make push pole (more on this later)

Assuming you'll just be ordering carbon fiber tubing and making it yourself?
What size are you needing? I have probably 3 or 4 joints of carbon fiber tubing in my shop from previous projects not being used.
