You can use plywood and glass construction if you like, but you really should use epoxy resin if you go that route. If you use strick's one-off mould method, you can use less expensive polyester resin, you'll have much less fairing to make it look professionally done, and it will be lighter and stronger. The method is tried and true, whereas the plywood/glass approach is a reinvention of the wheel unless you have a professionally designed solution.

dave it was not the transom angles i was onabout but the the angle from front to to back off the bracket i take onboard what you say about the geomery of boats not being the same but like i sead i reply to your last post if you look a the link in the reply to me by mr mcgillcardy you will sea there is not a lot off deferance in the hunt18 and the seacraft infact the seacraft 18 might be the hunt 18 sister
