What size boat and how flat is the bottom? Do you weigh 80 kg or 130 kg?
: I have some choices around glass cloth weights and I need some advice. All of
: the cloths I've been offered will wet out clear.
: 86, 165 and 200gm (in Ounces: 3, 5.8, 7)
: I'm not intending to lurk around rocks or breaking surf, but will be taking
: on some steep swells.
: My preference is for a light boat rather than a heavier one which can be
: bashed around. Along those lines, I'm thinking that the 86g (3oz) cloth
: will possibly be strong enough overall, and if doubled up around the
: cockpit floor, and deck areas affected by climbing in and out should offer
: enough extra strength in those areas?
: Is 3oz cloth sufficient over the majority of the boat (inside and out)? Or
: should I be considering the 5.8 oz on the outside, and 3 oz on the inside?
: Thanks for your thoughts!
