I've got a question that I havent been able to find online anywhere I have looked. I am considering repowering my 24 foot strendrive aluminium boat with a bracketed outboard. An was wondering how much wood you would have to build up on the transom to accommodate a bracket and outboard. Any advice would be greatly appreciated👍

It's so important to mix the mekt properly. That includes scraping the sides of the bucket while mixing. The reason why he's getting away with it is that he is mixing and stirring in the mekt every time he uses the roller. If you are working from a bucket, stir the mekt thoroughly. Nothing worse than resin that does not cure.

The trick to that rib roller is to go very patiently slowly with it from the center to edges pushing out the air, painstakingly, because otherwise if you just roll around fast you are only pushing air bubbles around. Great video though. You may want to make less resin to accommodate the time it takes to rib roll slowly.

I think I would cut the top caps off so I could I could put in bend in more and thinner layers of Coosa board without having to cut them. Alternatively more thinner layers with staggered cuts, locations and angles. Perhaps removing the inside glass wall leaving the outer hull intact. Bevel out the stringers for access and fit in a wedge later. I would have formed a fillet inside at bottom, sides and stringer junctions to allow several layers of glass to tie in and out of those adjacent surfaces.
@albinlindgren963
@albinlindgren963 10 ай бұрын
Removing the inside glass leaving the outside intact and being able to access 100% of the inside surface must be the best way. At least that is how I do it. cut out the inside glass and remove the old plywood and sand everything. Remove all traces of edges from the inside of the old glass. Then cut the Coosa board or plywood to a good enough size with some gaps around it. Drill many holes, about every 2" in it to help excess resin and air to move out. Saturate all layers and put in at least 2 layers of mat between the old glass and the new board plus additional mats between the plywood or coosa board and use big clamps. If done right there will be no air or excess resin left. After some curing, sand and clean all surfaces, fill the gaps arround the edges and lay on the mats. I thought that was how everyone did it. Perhaps I am doing it wrong... I am trying to understand why anyone would cut the outside of the hull 😱and leave the inside intact. Also how to get the air out of the corners with parts of the outside still in place 🤔

My original thought was to do Acrylic on the dashboard but after thinking @boutit more you should do Starboard as that is. Probably be more of a DIYer choice because of its availability Etc that’s what I’ve been using mostly over the last 20 years btw We have a local distributor that offers free delivery and pretty decent pricing to a commercial business I was in the CustomWoodworking field and I found out my local sign guy got the same deal I did on Starboard and his shop was real close to my marina although if I got it at my shop it was easy for me to breakdown large sheets into more manageable sizes due to having a full Woodworking shop for me to use sometimes I would do my cut list and machine everything at home

This is crazy I've never worked on boat glassing. But have worked with specialty glassing for many years. The process looks right but your laminating job is lacking. The fiber should fully soak the resin. When bonding you should use a more viscous resin so its thicker and hold to gravity so when they are clamped or screwed together the resin can ooze out. Alot like bonding two piece's of wood with wood glue. Any air is a weak spot that will spread. Only a matter of time.

I'm watching this video for the third time! I just love how easy you make this project look. As a fiberglass newbie I appreciate your guidance. I did a transom just like this on my 1968 Chriscraft 23 Commander and I can tell you that it's not as easy as it looks here but armed with your help it came out as good as yours. I used plywood instead of Coosa because I was on a bit of a budget. Also, it's so nice to see a professional using polyester resin and not that damned epoxy. Polyester is what was used in building the boat in the first place and in my opinion that's what should be used in a major repair such as this. Epoxy is great stuff and has it's place but too brittle for boat building. Keep up the good work!

FYI, you should Google resin bound fibreglass repairs. The strength of the fibreglass repair comes from the matting itself, not the resin. By adding too much resin it actually makes the process more brittle and it wouldn't be the first boat to be condemned because of resin bound fiberglass...

I have used a lot of coosa board on repair projects, when cutting the sheet in half as you did, the idea is to make a key hole pattern cut, not just a wavy line. The keyhole will lock the pieces together. I have made many straight cuts through coosa and laid it side by side with no problem. It somewhat depends on where the board is used and under what type of load is on it. The biggest issue I see people make with any core material is failure to wet it and the repair area out thoroughly with unthickened resin with adequate thickened resin for bedding the core. I see Post concerning using Matt and epoxy resin,as long as it is stitch mat(no binder) it works very well , such as in 1708 . 1708 is great stuff, I see you used roving, it is very strong. You can use the roving and 1708 together , just flip the mat side toward the roving and use epoxy resin with no problems.

I had taken out the water soaked foam from the back of my boat hull. Do I need to strengthening the back portion hull with marine plywood to replace the support of the previous soaked damaged foam to prevent the hull from giving way or just thickening the hull with new Fibreglass? I don’t intend to put back the foam. I just add on a 1100 gph bilge pump. Because I feel that the damage soaked foam give weight and sinking problem if the are damaged and soaked with water. Please advise? Thanks.

still convinced, welding and fab of aluminum is for me. Just amazed that will hold a big 4-stroke, 4 feet away on a bracket, jumping waves. Never seems strong enough to me.

The methods in the video were atrocious. Fiberglass work done correctly is immensely strong, but the boat repair in the vid will be suspect from day one.

@@Resistculturaldecline don't care. seen bolts and washers pulling thru and gaps between brackets and transoms before. Even new, it all has such leverage and torque on it. I'm amazed. I'm more into 1/2'' alloy plate. Have no opinion on the work done. Would never do, or want to do myself.

@@CaptDavesSportfishing I certainly hear what you're saying. In our hobby some of our hulls are 400lbs bare but most are 550-600lbs. 20'1" hull length and use 24" set back in some applications but most setbacks are 10"-14" with v6 up to 600hp with full kill builds. Some of these hulls were used as marathon racers on the Mississippi River and ran for thousands of miles over 100mph across chop, over the course of decades. But nothing like ocean swells. Lot of whitecaps with the occasional cargo barge wakes to negotiate. We don't get the impact of continuouly clearing big air like fast ocean rigs, our abuse is gazillions of jackhammer shock and material fatigue. We haven't found an aluminum yet to resist the fatigue. We have aluminum or steel in the transom in a fabbed grid pattern but it's not to necessarily give panel strength much as to prevent compression from over zealots wrench turners. We've broken jackplates and engine clamp brackets, broken bolts, even some exhaust housings, seats, etc. but not one single transom has let go since 1988 after leaving wood. 95% of these transoms even after 30 years don't have one single stress crack. Aluminum structure can be made very strong, they just get real heavy before they do. Aluminum also has a lot of fatigue if flexed repeatedly, so long as it thick enough and gusseted enough to not move at all. But the dynamic shock not absorbed in one area, get transferred down the line into one thing or another.

You know, that's something that we really don't see a lot of down here, or well not where we are at least. I think I've only seen a couple of totally aluminum or steel boats come into the marina in almost a decade! lol
