Making your boat longer is a simple process, in principle. You need to make a form for the extension, then make a mold from that form, then make the part in that mold, then attach the part to your transom.
On Windpuff, we are adding 4 extra feet to the back of the boat for various reasons, and this is all the work so far to make the idea transform into reality.

This is not completed, and the connection is nowhere near finished, as now there is a lot of fiberglass and fairing left to finish the job, but I just wanted to show you all the process to get to this point.

Special thanks to TotalBoat for all of the materials and guidance in this project!
