: Considering that an average size kayak
: might use 6 yards of cloth...

Gerald: 6 yards... I am getting ready to order glass for an 18' x ~20"-something boat. I am figuring I am going to need at least 24 yards of 38" wide cloth to do this boat inside and outside hull and deck. I was going to get 30 yards to have some extra for misc stuff. I'm thinking 6oz hull and deck, with 4oz overall inside. Is that about right?
