: Hey everyone,
: Had been off to NW GA and had plenty time to think and ponder the
: next few steps of the Yost SeaTour build. I have read about
: laminating a coaming, and Kudzu's technique instructional is
: very handy.

: Using the Yost 16x30 inside dimensions, can I build one with some
: leftover WRC I have on hand? I got a 16'x.75"x1.5" and
: another 16'x.75"x1" that I can have ripped somewhere
: into 1/8" strips.

: Most suggest the coaming be about 3/8" wide and 1.5" deep
: with a lip that I am not sure what dimensions it should be. Can
: it be only 1" deep as suggested (by Brian Nystrom???) in a
: thread somewhere ( I wanna roll on this thing)?

: Oh and uuhhh... if the coaming is sewn in, how then does the fabric
: around the coaming get coated later on???
: Thanks as always.

You'd have to steam the wood unless it was ripped VERY thin to make the bends and WRC doesn't steam, so unless you want to laminate the coaming from really thin strips using cedar won't work real well.

Coaming riser is normally about 3/4" high with a 3/4" lip, with a bent coaming that lip will usually be smaller.
