Plywood core question
I am going to recore all of my hatches this weekend.. I am going to use 1/2" plywood for the core material and poly. I have seen where others have used plywood in full sheets, as well as small squares. I am thinking small squares will be easier to work with and easier to bond as well (from a search on this site). Any other input appreciated!

After work today I was able to remove the rotten core of my fuel tank hatch. Because I do not have an air chisel..I removed all by hand...
Pics showing removal of rotten core....and the owner making sure I do a thorough job!!! And a picture per the owner's request.... Last edited by fdheld34; 03-28-2012 at 08:42 PM.

After my arms fell off and the chest pains subsided, as well as, changing the owner's outfit... because he decided to play in the water hose..I broke out my angle grinder with 80 grit and was able to remove the remaining core from the hatch without any trouble....now I know how Don Herman feels!!!

Question...
How do I deal with the large hole in the above hatch... I was thinking of backing the hole with a piece of ply with waxed paper while I put down my first 1.5 oz mat on the inside of hatch! The smaller screw holes, I plan on backing with blue painters tape.... Any other suggestions for the large hole appreciated! Only need to repeat the process on 3 more hatches (bow/anchor hatch, center console hatch and stern baitwell hatch!!!) -Fred Last edited by fdheld34; 03-28-2012 at 08:34 PM.

I am going to place it on the garage floor when I layup the fiberglass and plywood core squares. Hopefully will get to it this weekend. Thanks for the reminder! -Fred
