I have discontinued the GP310, GP400, and SX400 as of the 5th of this month.
The GSX310 and 380 are the replacements for those hulls.
If someone had to have a GP310 or 400, they would need to PM me, and I can get one, but I am trying to move forward with the new stuff.
A GSX338 and GSX265 will soon be available in the coming months as well. Once that happens, the rest of the GP series will be put to bed, lol.

Haha yeah man if I were doing white ide be doing a 3 stage pearl white or something. But since I paint cars professionally I have to do something funky. Candy red should pop on the waterOriginally posted by srislash View PostOhhh!! Candy Red, excellent.
I was just partial to the white because of my current build: Average White BoatThere's a hole at the center of earth where the rest of the world sinks but i stand still...

Mike, I would have built one of those but I hadn’t seen a build thread on them. The only reason I went with the GP was because there is one. Since it’s my first kit build I wanted to be sure I had my hand held a bit ya know? Now that I have one under my belt ide be more comfy building a gsxOriginally posted by cybercrxt View PostI have discontinued the GP310, GP400, and SX400 as of the 5th of this month.

Good attitude, enjoy the journey! I find myself, while doing the “mindless work”, sanding and such, just daydreaming about how it’s going to rip on the water, and how the sun comes off the paint. The smell of the paint when it’s outside, getting prepared for that first run. Yes, it’s a grand thing!Originally posted by Luck as a Constant View PostHey man, didn’t even see your reply. I’m just enjoying taking my time really. I don’t get too itchy about it lol

I’m really avoiding paint at this point lol
Don’t feel much like doing the prep work for paint yet, so I got on with mounting the motor with some gflex epoxy. Of course I sanded first with 80 grit. Then cleaned with alcohol.

Nice work for a first Woody.
How did you hold down the top tub sheet while the glue dried?
I'm about to do mine and I have an idea but any input is appreciated!

oh i picked up three 5lb weights from a sporting goods store, which were like $2 each, and mostly held it with that weight. for the front i had a couple of clamps that i was able to get to stay in place while the glue cured.Originally posted by ray schrauwen View PostNice work for a first Woody.

A nice trick you can try to keep clamps on where they’ll want to slip off, is to put aOriginally posted by ray schrauwen View PostOk. The pictures didn't show clamps on the front. You can't show everything!

Piece of masking tape where the clamp is going, and a piece of tape on the clamp. Then when you clamp it, use a few drops of superglue on the tape you laid down. Now when you clamp it. The superglue will dry, holding he clamp in place. Once Everything is cured, just take the clamp off and peel the two pieces of tape that are stuck together off the surface.There's a hole at the center of earth where the rest of the world sinks but i stand still...

Got the battery trays glued up with some ASI black aquarium sealant. ASI is the goods for battery trays, flexible, super hold, and you don't have to sand anything. it sticks awesomeThere's a hole at the center of earth where the rest of the world sinks but i stand still...
