In line with our recent thread about core materials, the most recent

covers the various core materials in lay terms that can be easily

OK, when we get mail again I will look for that article.

Relatively few people build their own boats out of foam core. Repairs
seem like a more useful focus for such an article; also assessing the
condition of foam-core structures.


The article is generally aimed at explaining the ins and outs of the
commercial boatbuilding industry, not homebuilders.
