Vacuum Bagging the ENTIRE Boat Coring on my $1,000 Boat

Got the entire core replaced with Divinycell Coring material. Applied Core Bond to bond the coring to hull. It was a long process, but it will be very strong and hold up to those big waves. Next up is glassing the coring and then Coosa stringers. Hope you all enjoyed and don't forget to leave a comment and a like. It's much appreciated!

Nice work. Bagging makes such a difference in the end👍😎

[@LindellAdventures]

Yes it does!

[@michelrood2966]

Good job man, keep on on grinding !

[@LindellAdventures]

Thanks, will do!

A lot of guys just slap on more and more layers of expensive fiberglass and resin. The boat gets stiffer at the expense of greater weight and actually poorer stiffness to weigh ratio. But the Divinycell cross linked PVC foam followed by even ONE layer of glass gets much more stiffness to weight ratio. This is because it does what fiberglass does poorly which is to add THICKNESS with little weight. It is from THICKNESS that structural members achieve stiffness. So I think what you are doing is wise and is prudent science injected into the process. Very little extra fiberglass needed with foam. Its a bit shocking actually how much flexing was clearly visible on the hull when you were walking and moving around on it. The great defect of most fiberglass boats is they are floppy. Especially with cheap non woven mat. They always cite greater strength than wood. Yes they are stronger in SPLIT RESISTANCE or IMPACT resistance, but NOT in stiffness where it counts. Wood is superior. PVC foam better still. That foam will never rot or absorb water. Very few online boat restorers do the insides of old fiberglass hulls properly. What you are doing is the best method.

Thank you! Planning to do 2 layers of 1708 and then stringers and 3 layers on them. Thanks for watching!

[@paulbriggs3072]

@@LindellAdventures You can use HALF that number of layer of fiberglass over the foam. Two at the most is more than necessary .Especially when you consider the hull worked for years as is without ANY additional layers OR foam.

[@cornrichard]

I have enjoyed several of these videos. I watched you remove the old coring, it looked like a huge pain. I still don't quite understand the purpose of coring. Does it just bulk up the structure in some fashion? It just looks like adding weight to me but I am sure there is a purpose I just don't get.

[@LindellAdventures]

Thank you! Coring helps the hull take waves and impacts without hurting the fiberglass. Some boats are coring and some are solid glass if weight isn’t a concern. Mine was soaked and was balsa end coring. This is closed cell foam which won’t hold water and is much lighter material. That make sense?

[@fakeaccount4761]

Bring back the commentary, been following for a long time and am totally unfamiliar with the process.

[@LindellAdventures]

I was wondering that. I've had people tell me they don't care for it. I put out polls before on this. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[@clide427]

Dude no worries but your taking to long and to short of videos of progress in sorry I know stuff comes up but if you plugged away you'd have more followers and viewers

[@LindellAdventures]

Family is first and I’m not doing this for followers or views, just showing the journey. I plan to plug away at it and it takes what it takes.

[@nena4215]

Looks like you did an amazing job, lightweight, strong and waterproof!!!

bro... i amazed how you restor your boat..., i wish i have one, id like to work that kind of restoration...

These videos are testament to the future value of this heart and soul investment! What a restoholic…RESPECT.

[@LindellAdventures]

Thank you!

[@Edgunsuk]

Hi watched the whole series is this as far as you have got or is there more videos finishing off the boat not on the playlist ?

[@LindellAdventures]

Working on glassing the coring now but the vacuum bagging is the latest. Stay tuned!

[@SwitchbackXThunter]

Any more update videos coming?

[@LindellAdventures]

It is coming! Life has been in the way but things are settling down now and the project will continue going back together 👍

[@SwitchbackXThunter]

@@LindellAdventures awesome news!

[@roblescurbappealconcrete]

Man, from you’re going to have to scrap it, to going all out. Awesome work, I have no idea that it’s gonna look amazing. Keep it up, and keep the videos coming. There’s a lot of us learning different things. Thanks for sharing. Texas

[@LindellAdventures]

Thank you! It’s coming along nicely 👍

[@paulcooksey6102]

When you got to the balsa core I thought ..... but you moved forward and have done a remarkable job. Keep up the great work. You give people inspiration 👍

[@LindellAdventures]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Jackt-3]

Great work guy! Can’t wait till it’s done but enjoying every video.

[@LindellAdventures]

Thanks 👍

[@Greenwrench]

Great videos! What is the blue adhesive you are using to glue the core to the hull?

[@LindellAdventures]

It’s called core bond. It’s great stuff!

[@garyhamlin8885]

How thick is the coring? Commentary in video is good also!

[@LindellAdventures]

It’s 1/2” and the commentary didn’t turn out. Next time 👍

Wicked job mate
