If you're up to some simple glass work, this is the very best way to do
this. Not costly, either. "Lew Hodgett" wrote in message ink.net... SNIP My choice would be epoxy/knitted glass. Get a couple of yards of double bias, knitted glass, say 17 or 24 OZ. Lay up about 4-5 layers on a plastic covered sheet of plywood. (This will provide a panel that has at least 68 OZ of glass, will be a minimum of about 3/16" thick, and probably stronger than the rest of your boat.) When cured, cut pieces to size with a saber saw, then drill as required. Bed these pieces of glass to the underside of the deck with fairing putty (Epoxy/micro-balloons) using the stanchion fasteners, just snugged, to locate and hold ass'y till cured. Give it a week to cure. When they grind the boat up for the land fill, those pads will still be doing their job. Lew |
