Yes, I realize the clarity issue. I'm debating whether to use it on the interior of the boat I am currently working on (another Petrel). I used 6oz E-glass on the first Petrel and even there the weave is slightly noticeable. That boat used 1/8" strips and came in at 33lbs. This one I am using 3/16" strip so it undoubtedly will weigh more.
