Re: Fiberglass schedule
Problem here might be that even though your using epoxy for the repair/replacement you still have that "other" resin under everything. So if the hull was made needing the stiffness it had then it would still need that or smaller flat panel sections. Your repair will certainly be strong enough the way your going about it. But underneath the repairs you still have what was there in the first place. The epoxy repairs are strong but under them is the original hull which did not have the high flexural modulus that epoxy has. So when the hull flexes the epoxy will do fine but the poly or vinylester will also flex and it could crack or break. Arn't you already repairing a crack in the bottom? If I had to guess I would say you will still be OK but guessing on a boat hull can be a disaster. Should you find yourself caught in a big storm,,,,well enough said. As always just my opinion and I have been wrong before,,,,
