I'm planning to start the installation of the fiberglass in my runabout, I am using 1708 biaxial mat with polyester resin. I was wandering since the biaxial has the mat stitched to the back on the cloth already do I need
to put down a layer of 1 1/2 oz mat first or can I just use the 1708 biaxial.

I would, but technically, I guess you would NOT have too. Precoat the wood first with resin. Let it dry. Coat it again with resin and while still wet apply the 1708 and wet it out some more and roll out the air with a bubble buster roller.
