Update

.

It's been several months now since the tail was installed. Other than having to re-tape, it's doing great and holding up well.


I've had some people question me about the strength of the boat tail since it is only made from thin foam and 1/2" emt. Not to mention being attached with only small bolts and tape.


So, I give them a little demonstration.


I thought some here might like to see it.





It really is surprisingly strong...
