Going Lightweight

Analising the plan set we took a big and important decision: build the boat in Divinycell foam instead of the original plywood project.

The most important factor: weight! We estimated that the boat in foam would weight much less than the original one. We thought that Divinycell would also be easier to work with and a good quality naval plywood is not so easy or cheap to buy over here.

So the next step was purchase the Divinycell foam, fiberglass, resin and hardener and wait to laminate the first panel!
