Plywood Composite Boats
Thank you; that's interesting. And the plywood bottom survived after all
these years. I now have more respect for plywood as a boat building material. Intuition tells me the hull wasn't sheathed in glass/epoxy ...or was it ? Also, I imagine a boat its size remained in the water during the boating season instead of being "trailered". I've read a lot about the need to keep a plywood boat out of the water, as much as possible, in order to expect any longevity. Maybe this boat is an aberration but I hope not. I'm considering to build a composite plywood hull and will keep docked it in salt water for six months out of the year. I was told this wouldn't work. I was told to put it in at the beginning of the day and take it out at the end. I'm starting to feel a little more confident in plywood composite hulls. |
