Default Holy Crap!!!!

Why? They agree with me that only failed (cracked and broken)
fiberglass will have less transparency than good, strong, unbroken
fiberglass. When the fibers break, they expose unwetted glass, which
is translucent.


He's right, Bob. And all this proves that my thin 35s5 hull may be a
good deal tougher than Mooron's 3/4" hull, though probably less tough
than those radomes.

Your hull is as strong as jet turbine blades. In fact, only one substance
known to man is tougher.

Amen!
