Does the Arjay have any fiber in it as the Seacast does? I like that aspect. And does anyone know how similar are these compunds to coosa board?
Well one is very stiff and very expensive and needs lots of exterior fiberglass bonding, one is not as expensive and far from stiff....until it hardens.

I would go on their web site and send an email to the sales guys sales@arjaytech.com and get the technical data sheets on strength, compression, density, etc. I bought my Arjay in Sarasota, 8 five gallon pails because we did my brother's boat at the same time, and the guy had a sample about 12" square, 1 1/2" thick with 1708 on both sides as a display to mimic a transom. Then he hands me a hammer and tells me to give it a wack, not even a mark. I do remember the compression numbers and density were off the chart. Coosa Bluewater 26 is 26 pounds per cubic foot, duh, I think Arjay is very similar.
