Stringer repair or replacement? -How to fiberglass stringers and over plywood-

Plywood is just one of those materials everyone uses on their boat. In this video I will show you the proper way to do a fiberglass layup. Using some MDO I had in the shop, and is my preferred plywood for any boat project. Its light and once sealed semi waterproof (road signs and billboards were made from MDO) Fiberglassing plywood is a lot easier than you think!! And this technique applies to all fiberglass repair, or your own boat restoration project. This type of repair can be applied to transom repair, or to replace the stringers on your boat. Even fiberglassing the bulkheads in your boat, really anytime you need to fiberglass a 90 degree angle. You will need some 1708 fiberglass and some chop strand matting to do this layup. It is crucial that you round over the top edge. Fiberglass does not like to bend at 90 degree angles. I really prefer to use a structural repair putty like total boats or hull and deck because I don't have to mess around with silica, which is very toxic to our lungs. If your using laminating polyester resin make sure you cure it with gelcoat, please don't use the PVA. I explain why in this video!
