Re: Soft Deck....Unsure waht to expect
Ok here are my numbers.....how do they sound? I have a 16 ft boat, its 4'5" wide at the deck and sides are 1'7" high. Im planing on doing a full double lay up of 48" CSM to the enitre hull as sudgested by Oops then laying a layer of 8oz roving cloth on that. With the numbers I just said I should need about 100ft of CSM....120ft of 8oz cloth witch would cover both the layup and deck and 20ft of 60" Bi ax for the stringers. My stringers will be low profile, about 6 inches in hieght, the outer stringers are 12 feet in length and the center stringer is 15 ft in length. I tried to be liberal but I just need to know if i did my math wrong. I am hoping ill only have to buy once and have everything I need. this should be enought to do the layups, encasplate (top and bottom) the deck and transom construction. I dont even know how much tape to order for tabing...my head is about to explode with math
. Oh well Chime in you guys I did my best
