Hello everyone,

I work in the composite industry as a laminator/boat builder working with luxury tenders in Hampshire. I primarily use wet lay techniques but have done many pre preg lay ups as well. I have been looking at avenues into the Motorsport/aerospace industry as I've seen this is a significant pay increase but have come struggled to get in because of my maritime background. If anyone on this site has any information or advise for me it would be much appreciated. 

Cheers

PrePreg would be highly regarded so definitely make sure that you're getting that across to prospective employers. I worked in the marine industry for 9 years and we were only starting to tickle more advanced processes about 2-3 years ago such as Resin Infusion and it'll be years before PrePreg is widely used in the marine sector. If you're looking for work in Aerospace/Automotive/Motorsport; make sure that you cover the roles, repsonsibilites and experience you have so that you stand out from any other normal marine laminators.

Aside from places building multi-million pound custom boats, I don't really know of anyone using PrePreg in marine so that is definitely favourable for you!!
