Following repairing a skiff recently I've been asked a couple of times about boats.  Random!  The skiff was grp with a foam core.  Has anyone here made a boat before?  I'm curious about what sort of layups / thicknesses I'll find.  One of my enquiries was about experimenting with hull shapes on a powerboat so I'll guess thats a fairly robust layup!

I have a friend I can ask about the powerboats ... he used to build racing catamarans and powerboats at a small composite firm, including kevlar/CF work ...

I'll get back to you on this ... (I'm interested as well ... always fancied myself a CF powerboat, with a V8 inboard...  ... )
