: The advantage of skinning with PVC fabrics, to me, is that as soon
: as you've skinned the boat, it's done - no coating necessary.
: If you have to coat it anyway, then just use a superior fabric -
: 8oz polyester from George Dyson is only $6 a yard - $2.01 more
: is easy to swallow.

I agree with you Dave. Just used it on ours and it is great to work with.
