I'm thinking of investing in the stuff to do my own boat. Last year the marina charged $10/ft, and now they're up to $12/foot. The supplies ran me $60 last year. Wonder what all I'd need to do my own boat? Anyone done it? Done correctly, a tarp over a properly constructed frame works as well as shrink wrap. Cheaper and greener too. |

The directions I read said to keep a fire extinguisher very handy! The price of the propane gun, $650, threw me. I suppose my wife's hair dryer wouldn't work too well. I was thinking the stuff was like the wing covering I used to use on model airplanes. It's a bit thicker! |

Wonder what all I'd need to do my own boat? Anyone done it? I never have, John. I store mine inside. But if you decide to DIY then good luck to you. You might also look on youtube, somebody's probably posted a vid on 'how to' |
