- The Captain’s Haines Hunter 445F project boat is rebuilt with solid glass stringers and Thermo-Lite flooring supplied by CCA Composite Boards. Erick and Wally from Whitepoiter boats reckon it’ll be one tough little Nub Tub.
Ive watched this seriously 30 times plus... gives me confidence in my build. killer stuff. great sound track too
Beautiful workmanship
Its great to see somebody that really knows what there doing
With new teck stuff instead of using wood

Don’t forget to do the glass blasting shootout against the 488 hornet 😎
Mate that technology is so 70s! Woven roving is history
AWSOME boat!!!
What was the stringers made from they where massive be structurally stronger
This is the exact kind of job I’m looking to get done to my nautiglass v150 half cab sportsman roughly what price range am I looking at to get it done like in this video.
Whats the whole thing worth as rebuild? White Pointer Point of view- Also Stringers looked a little odd? not the conventional?
About time
What was the final cost for the rebuild? Excluding the hull purchase.
At a guess, 20k
Polyester??? Why??
How much would that cost to redo the stringers floor and gel coat
when is going to be finished ???????????????????????????????????????
So the fuel tank is permantley glassed in ? bad idea
not the worst idea alot of american boats do it this way but they dont put in the proper marine grade metal tanks in so then u have to cut the floor open and pull it out but if they used the correct marine grade metal for the tank its perfectly fine
Stainless steel or alloy ??
How did u prep the hull prior to glassig It and what kind of resin did u use? Polyester ure epoxi?
The hull is sanded back then cleaned with acetone before glassing. Erick uses polyester ISO laminating resin. Hope this helps.
Like music- who is it?

Where are you guys located ? nice work.
Whitepointer is located in Cann River, North East Victoria.
woven rovings are so old hat. Why didn't you use a Double bias, a lot stronger.
Graeme Smith yes good point
Erick says that woven rovings are a more suitable material for the job as it's more pliable around the edges and gaps, noting the rovings were rolled into the strakes and around the chine. Erick also says he uses double bias extensively in his Whitepointer 263, largely because it doesn’t show print through, as woven rovings tend to show.
Because Australia that’s y we are light years behind thinking that more glass and resin is better
ALLAHUAKBAR
Lol what a waste of money.
Steven Williams I have fished out of one of these , it was yellow and was powered by 90hp Yamaha two stroke , we called it “the yellow peril” , very fast boat to fish wide for yellowfin tuna. That boat caught more big yellowfin than any other boat in the area.
