Re: 1999 Celebrity 190 - Engine Mount and Stringer Repair
It's really hard to tell. But in some areas it really gives if I put weight on it. Especially near the areas I was grinding where original structure was. If I had to guess, most areas are in the 1/8" thickness, some way less. If you think woven is way overkill, I may just stick with CSM and 1708 as you've suggested.
Again, Resin, without gel is translucent soooo, anywhere that the color is gone light will shine thru. You should only be worried if the hull seems to be excessively flimsy in certain areas. If you will be filling the hull with flotation foam it will really stiffen the hull significantly. That's why I asked you to give an estimate of the thickness of the glass in the hull. If it's 1/8" to 3/16" then it's fine. If you want to lay an extra layer of CSM or 1708 then you can, but IMHO it's not necessary or required. The GREEN stuff is Polyester resin.
