: Any advice is contingent on what you have. If you could post some
: quality pictures somewhere it would help anyone who has advice.
: One thing you should do is get one of the numerous books on strip
: building so you are knowledgable about the basics. For instance,
: modern strippers are wood cored fiberglass laminates. The wood
: has to be encased in an epoxy/fiberglass layer inside and out.
: There are no ribs or other interior stuctures except for
: bulkheads which are added for floatation.
I did buy a book, yesterday, called "Building Strip Planked Boats", by Nick Schade. It looked like a good book to start with.
