It will not let me link a specific article, apparently, so head down to the "Testing for Damage Tolerance " article under
Epoxy Techniques & Materials. It's about impact damage, and says some stuff that we don't but probably should do.

Here's a link to a PDF of the article "Testing for Damage Tolerance" which I can enlarge to actually read the text and the chart.

I'd like to know the lay-up for panel "F".

I'm building an 18' Oughtred sailboat and might use that lay-up.
