In Response To: Doorskins (Jay Babina)

: I'm going to build a SeaSpirit this winter and I'm thinking of using
: doorskins for the hull - (strip deck) anybody have any bad experiences
: with them , voids etc. I don't mind the price of Okume (sp??). It's just
: such a hassel to get and sometimes it's just fun to see what you can get
: out of inexpensive materials. Besides, I'll paint the hull.

Just seal the stuff well. A couple coats of epoxy minimum.
