Like Strick said . . . use poly . . . cause it takes about 10 - 12 gallons of resin to make one with a swim platform.

This one hasn't had much use and there is not a stress crack in it. This boxy design takes less material and less brain power to build.





The red one I made is still kicking around on a seacraft



The one I made for Hermits Heron has had some problems, cause I added too much beer and used some experimental fabric (which wasn't a good choice). Hermit has to do some repairs to one section, but it's still holding up after a full bass season 225 ficht. Stringer design is important . . . I like one big thick stringer down the middle to the top of the tub.
How many layers of glass did you use? Is 1708 ok I have a bunch of that around?
