ULTRA LIGHT HONEYCOMB FLOOR INSTALL Nidacore Sleekcraft SST Sunday #16

Thank you for your support! Have you ever wondered how to build an extremely high performance boat hull on a budget? In this episode, I’ll show you how to install an ultra lightweight, rot proof, composite honeycomb floor in your boat! This honeycomb construction is mostly air, weighing less than half of a sheet of plywood with superior strength, and will never rot out. I'll also be installing one last floor brace where the panels come together, in depth showing you how to install the floor itself, going for a rip on my FINISHED Sleekcraft Aristocrat, and fairing in the entire floor with two coats of lightweight glass fabric. The success of my SST project was pretty unexpected; viewers like you helped pay for the fiberglass resin & supplies needed to finish this project! As a thank you, I'll be doing a new video every sunday; Sleekcraft Sundays! I picked up a crazy rare ultra high performance twin tunnel hull ModVP Sleekcraft SST for $500! This was one of sleek's fastest hulls ever, and was famous for racing in the ModVP series in 70s/80s/90s before it was banned for being too dangerous! This thing is going to need EVERYTHING, but I'll show you how you can tackle all these major repairs without spending a lot of cash by doing almost everything yourself. If you liked this video or learned something, please check out some of my other videos and stay tuned for updates to the SST project!
