Boat Builder Central

what i was thinking of ,in short version, that your boat has much more hull/bottom underwater than original MG and that makes it more stable. The more submerged surface, the more stable the boat. Maybe i'm wrong, and thats what im asking

it has been a while and i have another question. I was thinking about MG stability. Barraman's one has 18 inch draft so theres a long reverse chine line under water, so its rock stedy. Oryginal MG has draft of 311 mm at DWL, this means that there will be a half less reverse chine under water then at...

i agree that it is impossible to build sport bass boat on my own. This pad topic is more like curio. Those nozzles are for livewell, they got two separate systems for right and left section.
Question to BarraMan, whats the draft of 110% MG with 250 Yama ?

Thank you for all your replies. I know that plywood build would bw way easier. If everything will go right propably i will build my MG using plywood but i wanted to know opinions and laminatiom scheldules for foam version. For my latest project i was using Herex 100kg/m3 and Epoxy LG385 and biaxial ...

Once Jacques gets back to you why don't you price out both materials and see which one is cheaper....

Thank You Jeff, I'll wait, may be i'll get some info

Hello, I have finally finished my last project so i can start with MG20.I've got some questions.First one, because of hi prices and lack od plywood in my country, im thinking of making a hybrid, and use foam as a core for side panels and deck.Is it possible to get foam core lamination schedule ? Sec...

After your respond, i think that i will reorganizie my garage and may be I will be able to have it 1:1, as a MG20, not MG18. Those are my first tries of bass boat layout.

Yes, just like that.
